Read throughout the summer for great prizes for every 210 minutes read. Books, eBooks, online magazines/newspapers, work materials, all count towards earning minutes read. Those reading to younger children can earn minutes read for themselves and the younger child. We will have great weekly programs for all ages, both indoors and outdoors. Prizes for reaching reading benchmarks are available while supplies last and can be picked up weekly. We will have bonus prize drawings for those who complete the program.
