The return of BookFest last weekend was made possible by dedicated Friends of Bowen Island Library Society volunteers who hauled books, set them up at Bowen Island Community School, and then spent time working the event itself.
All three days were busy as people frequented the gym to enjoy the first BookFest since 2019. Many people thought they might grab one or two books, but after spending some time perusing, ended up leaving with a box or dolly cart full of new reading material to enjoy.
