SUMMER READING
Summer Reading encourages community members of all ages to finish the reading goal, complete special missions, and meet their neighbors at Library events. This annual program helps kids and teens maintain learning while school is out and fosters their social-emotional development.
A crucial impact of this program is the free books kids and teens receive for participating. With the support of our sponsors, every child and teen that signs up and completes the reading goal will receive two free books to keep in their own personal library. We know that growing up surrounded by books in your home helps build vocabulary, increases comprehension, and boosts literacy.
In 2023, our community logged 43,451 hours of reading during the program, and we gave away over 1,700 books to kids and teens! The support of sponsors will help us expand the program in 2024 and place free books in the hands of more young readers.
Our Presenting Sponsor enables us to give 700 books to kids and teens in our community.
