Read Books, Win Prizes!

Read Books, Win Prizes!

June 19, 2017/in Blog, Library Events, Library Services/by Michaela, Technical Services

What is the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the words: Library Summer Reading Program. Did you flash to your childhood memories of summer vacation spent reading in your bed until the sun was streaming through your window? Or how about memories of your own children visiting the library for fun activities and prizes for all the books that they are reading? When most people think of Summer Reading Programs at their library they most likely think about the program for kids.

But why should kids have all the fun? Don’t you want to win prizes and have some fun this summer? If your answer is yes, join us for the Adult Summer Reading Program! There are four ways to win a prize this summer:

First, you get an instant prize for reading or listening to 3 books. When you turn in your reading slip, you will win either a free book, piece of Lindt Lindor Chocolate Truffles, or a coloring bookmark. Just make sure that you choose the right reading road trip sign on our prize board (it’s a guessing game and you’ll find what you’ve won underneath the road sign).Your next chance to win is in the Weekly Drawing. Each Monday, we’ll choose two slips from the previous week. If your slip is picked, you will win a Reading Road Trip Can Koozie! 

All slips that you complete (you can turn in as many as you can fill!) will be entered into the finale Grand Prize Drawing! The Grand Prize this year is a Tournament Kubb Set (see below picture). We will also be giving away a Pine Kubb Set, an adventure at Tactical Escape 101 for 4, and gift cards and merchandise from other local businesses! Thank you to all the generous donations from the businesses featured in the video below.

Bonus Game! The fourth way to win is by playing our 20 Questions Travel Game! The objective of 20 Questions is quite simple: guess the person, place or thing in 20 questions or less! In our version, you may ask Information & Reference staff one question per day. If you can guess the secret answer by the end of your allotted 20 questions, you will be entered to win a $10 Kwik Trip gift card. 

The program runs until August 15. Don’t miss out on your chance to win! Register here.
