The public is invited to bring their unwanted necklaces, bracelets, earrings, platinum, silver, coins, rings, watches and more to the gold event. Those who attend will have an opportunity to be paid cash for their unwanted items.

The book sale will offer unique children's books, cookbooks, inspirational books, gift items and more.

The events will run from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday and from 6:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday. Both will be at Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital. The Gold Refinery event will be outside the Woods Café, and the book sale will be in the Steinfort Conference Center.
