The Library is Hosting a Toy Swap!

Do you have toys at home that haven’t been played with over the last few months or even longer? We want to help your toys find a new home with our First Annual Toy Swap.

Toy Swap donations can be dropped off at the Children’s Reference desk at Patrick Beaver Memorial Library from Wednesday, January 18, through Friday, January 20, by 4:30 p.m. We are looking for all types of toys, for all ages. Donated toys need to be in clean, working (non-recalled) condition. This Toy Swap will not be a 1:1 swap (meaning we will not assess the value of one toy over another). We are also asking each child present to only take “one toy.” Children will still be able to participate and leave with a toy, even if they could not donate one.

The Toy Swap will be first come-first served, children must be present at Toy Swap to receive a toy while supplies last, and will take place Saturday, January 21, at the Patrick Beaver Memorial Library, from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. Any leftover toys will be donated to charity. 

This program is free and open to the public. No registration is required for this program. Patrick Beaver Memorial Library is located at 375 3rd Street NE on the SALT Block.  For information about this event or Hickory Public Library, please call 828-304-0500 or visit www.hickorync.gov/library.
