The Summer Reading Club

How the Club Works

1. Children from 6 months through 6th grade and Teens entering grades 7 — 12 may register beginning June 29th.  A minimum of 15 minutes a day of reading (or being read to), five days a week for 6 weeks is required in order to be a finisher.  Read anything you choose:  books, magazines, newspapers, e-mails, comics, anything!

2. Come to your nearest branch library and fill out a form with your name, grade, and school.  Kids will receive a book bag and a “Reading Record” to record the number of minutes you’ve read each day of the 6 weeks.  Teens will receive a free book and a bookmark.

3.  Sign-up for individual story times, craft programs, and special events is separate from sign-up for the Summer Reading Club.

4.  Grades K-3 will receive a weekly prize.  Grades 4–6 can enter a weekly raffle.
