Event Details

Swap it like it's hot!

Bring gently-used, quality coats to exchange the items you no longer wear for new-to-you pieces that will bring new life to your wardrobe. Winter accessories like warm hats, gloves, and scarves are also welcome as a separate donation!

GUIDELINES: 

  • Only bring quality, clean coats and winter accessories. NO torn or stained items, please.
  • Bring a maximum of 2 coats per person or number of family members participating in the swap.
  • Please make sure all items are freshly cleaned. Put all items in the dryer on high heat for 10 to 20 minutes before the event.
  • You will receive 1 ticket for each coat you bring. The tickets will be your swap currency.
  • You will not receive a ticket for winter accessories. These will be available first-come, first-served on an honor basis.
  • Any items remaining at the end of the event will be donated to charity.

Psst... Can't make the swap but have quality coats you'd like to donate? All BCPL locations will be accepting donations through Friday, November 17th. The same donation guidelines apply!

For all ages. Just drop in!
Swap items will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Questions? Contact Angel at 543-7675 ext. 5 or e-mail angel@bcplib.org.
