We’re wrapping up our Summer Reading Challenges and we were blown away by everyone’s accomplishments! We had over 600 participants across all age groups. Our Tweens & Teens raffle challenge had 126 participants (second only to the Read & Bead Challenge, which had 300 participants!), who read weekly to have their challenge cards stamped for the chance to win one of four awesome prize baskets. Congratulations to our lucky winners, and well done on a reading-filled summer!
