You can still be a part of our Summer Reading Program! And there is something for all ages pre-readers to adults. Call or email us to sign up. You’ll receive a kit every other week with a reading log, activities, book and film suggestions, and a few other surprises.  When the program is complete on August 31 we will have a celebration and all participants will receive a free book and chances to win other great prizes. 

All reading counts!  Books, magazine articles, recipes and more will help you accrue points and reach your goal of 1000 points!    Participants will log their reading activity based on a book, number of pages or minutes and each has a different point value based on age group.  For example, adults receive 100 points per book and one point per page or minute. 

If you want to follow the program online, we will be using an application called READsquared that allows you to register, log your progress, complete activities, play games, review books, and more!   You can use the website or download the READsquared app for Android or iOS.  If you do not want to use READsquared you can call or email your information to us and we will record it for you.
