Register for the Summer Reading Club (SRC), then track reading time completed at home, in the park, or wherever you go! 

Attend library programs to earn extra raffle tickets. Turn in reading logs to earn prizes and raffle tickets throughout the summer! Children and teens can attend a special completion party at the end of the SRC. 

Early Literacy (babies-pre-reader): Track your time reading, writing, singing, talking, and playing and earn a raffle ticket for every 5 activities completed.

Child (independent reader-5th grade): Track your reading and earn 1 raffle ticket for every hour of reading, being read to, or listening to audiobooks.

Teen (Grades 6-12): Track your time reading and earn raffle tickets and prizes for every 5 hours spent reading this summer. Teens complete SRC when they read 20 hours.

Adult (18+): Track your reading by time and earn a raffle ticket for every 5 hours spent reading this summer. Adults can track a maximum of 40 hours.

SRC begins on Tuesday, May 26 and ends on Friday, July 10.

All early literacy activities count: read, write, sing, talk, play! Babies and toddlers may not be reading, talking, or writing, but a lot of activities count towards our SRC Reading Logs!

Read: read aloud to your child and also count time they spend interacting with and looking at books.

Write: Any fine motor hand skills count! Babies can grasp toys, toddlers can scribble, or kids can practice coloring or writing and it all helps build pre-writing skills. If it requires reaching, pinching, grabbing, or any fine motor skills, it counts as writing.

Sing: Sing with your child! Singing is a great way to bond and learn new words and tunes together.

Talk: Not all children in this age group are talking yet. Count time spent talking to your child. Babbling and other pre-talking noises count towards this activity as well.

Play: Play helps build so many skills for young kids! Any play time counts towards this goal.

Each age range has a reading log to track participation in SRC. Pick one up at the library, beginning on Tuesday, May 26!

• Early Literacy (babies-pre-reader) 
• Child (independent reader-5th grade)
