~ The annual Summer Reading Program at the local library is back and ready to kick off on Monday, June 16. The program, which runs until Wednesday, July 30, is open to all age groups and encourages participants to read or listen to books for at least 20 minutes a day.
Babies and toddlers ages 0-2 can participate in the program, as well as youth ages 2-12, teens ages 13-18, and adults ages 18+. To join, simply log your reading days on the Beanstack app or website. For those who prefer a paper log, librarians are available to help with logging in person at the library.
For every five days of reading, participants will earn one virtual raffle ticket. Each age group has multiple separate online raffles that they can enter weekly. In addition, attending "Color Our World" programs will also earn extra raffle tickets. The program will culminate in a grand prize raffle for each age group on July 31. Anyone who registers for Summer Reading will automatically be entered into the grand prize raffle.
