Join us this Summer!
Summer Reading was created to help prevent “summer slide”, the loss of knowledge and reading skills between school years. These days, our Summer Reading Program is for people of all ages!
Last summer we hosted a ton of programs and our community read 120,000 minutes through June and July! This year we have 60+ programs and hope to beat last year's reading goal!
Join us this summer as we challenge you to read more books and try new things at a library event! Reading 600 minutes will enter you to win a free eReader (teens and adults) or a Lego/wooden block set (kids and babies).
How to Participate
How to Participate
- Read Something!
Download the Beanstack Tracking App, or grab a paper reading log at the front desk.
Check out books in person and/or online, or read things you already have at home!
Audiobooks, eBooks, newspapers, magazines, reading to children, children being read to by you... there are a ton of ways to read!
Log the time you spend reading each day.
Your goal for the summer is 600 minutes, or 10 hours.
Complete your goal to be entered into the Grand Prize Drawing for your age group!
- Events
Check our events calendars below for something that interests you.
Each event is color coded by age group.
Don't see an event you can attend?
That's ok! We're Monday-Saturday and will have plenty going on for visitors, even if there's no event happening!
Summer Reading starts June 1 and ends July 31. Any reading between those dates counts!
All reading must be logged by August 1.
Grand Prize Drawings will happen at the Wrap Party on August 2!
