TIME TO PLAY THE GAME!



Are you ready to play the SUMMER READING GAME?
It’s easy:

1.       Read. A good goal (and an easy one!) is 15 minutes a day. Cross off a call-out every time you read for 15 minutes. When you finish a ticket, hand it in to a librarian.

2.       Your ticket also serves as a raffle ticket for our awesome prizes. You get to choose what you'd like to win! Check out some of our prize packs:
 

3.       You'll also get on our game board.  You’ll get to pick a superhero and start scoring points! The more you read, the more points you’ll score on the game board. Each time you reach a new superhero level, you’ll get to pick a free book to keep! 

4.       Hit 20 points and you’ve finished the game! Get your free summer reading t-shirt!

5.       Keep reading and your entries will go in for a raffle of our grand prize: you get to choose which of these epic prizes you’d like to win!

Winners of the grand prize and prize packs will be notified at the end of the summer! Meanwhile, keep an eye out for other special contests, raffles, and fun stuff throughout the summer.
