This summer, join us for a fun and free way to read, learn, and explore your way through the season with our Summer Reading challenge! Whether you’re a teen, adult or a kid, this exciting challenge encourages you to try new books, engage your creativity, and connect with the Library and the community in new ways all summer long.

 

Participating in Summer Reading is not only fun, it’s valuable. Summer Reading programs like this one help kids maintain critical literacy skills, learn new things, and engage with books while they’re not in school. Teens and adults benefit as well. Regular reading keeps everyone’s literacy and comprehension skills strong for a lifetime. Kids and teens must complete BINGO boards by July 31 for a chance to win prizes. Adults can track their reading, get punches as they finish books, and win small prizes along the way.

 

Starting May 21, participants can:

 

  • Download a BINGO board for kids
  • Download a BINGO board for teens
  • Download a Summer Reading punch card for adults
  • Pick up printed boards and cards at Childrens or Adults Library reference desks

 

Here’s to a fantastic, book-filled summer!
