Summer Reading
Summer Reading encourages participants of all ages to achieve reading goals, explore new ideas, and connect through Library events. This annual program keeps kids and teens learning during the summer and supports their social-emotional development.
Thanks to sponsors like you, young participants earn prize incentives for completing their goals, including a free book. Research shows that access to books at home enhances vocabulary, boosts comprehension, and fosters literacy. In 2024, our community logged 55,025 hours of reading, and we distributed over 2,900 books to young readers. With your support, we hope to expand the program in 2025, reaching more children and making an even greater impact.
