Summer Reading Journey Board: How Does it Work?
- Pick up a Summer Reading Journey Board from the Library at any time, starting June 1. When you pick up your
- board, you'll get to pick one free book for starting, and earn one entry into the prize raffle.
- For baby through teen! We've got free books to pick from ranging from board books to young adult. "Reading" includes reading together, independent reading, audiobooks, ebooks, and print.
- Fill in one of the 16 squares every time you finish a book, attend a library program, or meet
a personal reading goal (set number of minutes or pages). - Return your completed board to the library to receive an additional free book, a pick from the prize bin, and a second raffle entry!
