The Penn Manor Band Boosters will host their annual book sale to benefit the Penn Manor marching unit and indoor drumline from 6 to 8 p.m. on Friday, May 6, and from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, May 7. It will take place in the cafeteria at Penn Manor High School, 100 E. Cottage Ave., Millersville. “The book sale was started years ago and has always been a fun event for the community,” said interim booster club president Curtis Wagner. “It is something of a treasure hunt. We’ve come across rare finds, authorsigned books, and even usable college textbooks.” This year’s sale will feature new and used books such as novels, self-help books, history books, children’s books, and more. Baked goods and drinks will also be available for purchase.
