Our annual Summer Reading Program encourages all ages to keep reading over the summer.
We have six weeks packed full of free, fun family activities, including performers, crafts, educational presentations, and more!
This year's national theme is "Adventure At Your Library."
We have two programming tracks, one for fantastical fun, and another for outdoor adventures.
All ages are welcome to participate, though some programs are designed for teens and adults, and others are for kids.
All ages can win prizes for reading!
You will earn some small trinkets during your adventure, at the 300, 600, and 1,000 minute marks. We’ve got cool stickers, “Magic Worms,” and a chest full of neat treasures. However, the main prizes this year will be raffle prizes. These include four gift certificates for tubing on the Fox River!
(Each of the four gift certificates provide admission for up to four people at The Ice Bowl, a $100 value. Thank you to The Ice Bowl of Princeton for sponsoring these prizes!)
For 30 minutes you read between June 5 and July 17, you will receive a raffle ticket for our big prize drawing on July 17th. All books read must be checked out from the library.
You can also earn raffle tickets by going on adventures like hiking, biking, and attending library events.
TO SIGN UP FOR THE SUMMER READING PROGRAM:
