LENDING LIBRARY
When you become a member of BWI of Ocala you pay $30 for a 12 month membership - that comes out to only $2.50 a month! During that time you can check out one carrier a month from our Lending Library (available at our monthly meetings). You will be able to browse and borrow from our extensive collection of over 100 carriers. This is a wonderful way to try new carrier types, styles, brands, and blends in the comfort or your own home and as you go about your daily life. When else are you able to try 12 different carriers and wear your baby close every day for a year for only $30??
LITTLE LENDERS PROGRAM
