Who's ready to start reading this summer?!
🇺🇸📚 PEMBROKE READS 250 IS OFFICIALLY HERE! 📚🇺🇸
School may be out, but the adventure is just beginning!
I’m excited to officially launch Pembroke Reads 250 — our Mayor’s Reading Club Summer Challenge celebrating America’s 250th birthday through books, imagination, and learning!
🦉 This summer, we’re challenging Pembroke to read 100,000 minutes together as a community while unlocking fun milestones along the way!
🎉 COMMUNITY READING MILESTONES:
📚 25,000 Minutes → Mayor Storytime Event
🍧 50,000 Minutes → Popsicles at the Park
⭐ 75,000 Minutes → Star Reader Celebration Week
🍦 100,000 Minutes → Ice Cream with the Mayor Finale!
✨ EVERY registered reader helps us unlock community goals!
To participate in the finale celebration, readers simply need to complete 250 reading minutes this summer — that’s just a little reading at a time!
✅ Participation is FREE
✅ Read what YOU love
✅ Submit reading minutes weekly
✅ Help Pembroke make history!

📚 Parents — Here’s the BEST part:
Your child’s reading can count for MULTIPLE programs at the same time!
The Pembroke Public Library Summer Reading Program (“Unearth a Story”) and Georgia Reads for America250 can overlap with Pembroke Reads 250.
That means:
📖 Reading logged for the library challenge can ALSO count toward Pembroke Reads 250
🇺🇸 Reading books from the Georgia America250 list can count too
🦕 Participate in the library’s Dino-themed summer events, prizes, and activities while helping Pembroke reach our citywide reading goal!
The Pembroke Public Library Summer Reading Program runs May 28 – July 15, and Georgia Reads for America250 registration remains open through July 4.
Visit the Pembroke Public Library or the library website for details on:
