Summer Reading is here!!
Can you believe it’s already June? May flew by in the blink of an eye—probably because we were having so much fun! Our Summer Reading Kickoff at Dips on the last day of school was an absolute blast. We were thrilled to see so many of you excited to sign up, and we’re proud to share that we surpassed last year’s kickoff sign-ups by nearly 43%! Even more amazing, we’re already almost halfway to last year’s total number of participants, and the program hasn’t even officially started yet!
Summer Reading officially begins on Monday, June 2nd, and we’ve got a full lineup of activities to keep you engaged all summer long. From programs nearly every day, to fun weekly challenges, to tracking your reading progress, there are so many ways to get involved—and earn tickets for our end-of-summer prize drawings. Check out the awesome prizes below and start making your summer reading plans now!
