The theme this year is “Read, Renew, Repeat,” and we will also be hosting a Clean up the Library Park challenge for kids ages 0-10 and a bingo challenge for teens and adults.

Participate with Beanstack!

We will once again be running our Summer Reading Challenge on the Beanstack app. If you’ve used Beanstack in the past, no need to sign up again–just log in and join the Summer Reading 2024 challenge!

If you’re signing up for the first time, head to our Beanstack website or download the app, Beanstack Tracker, to sign up and join the challenge for your age group. If you have kids, you can sign them up for their age range on your Beanstack account, too! Once you’re signed up, you can log books as well as complete activities for badges. 

If you’d prefer to use paper to participate in Summer Reading, you can stop by the Library Children’s Room for a reading log or by the Young Adult Area for a bingo sheet. 

Check out the Library Park on the bulletin board outside of the Children’s Room and watch us clean up the park this summer.
