Summer Reading Program Preview!

Heya YAs!  The start of the Summer Reading Program is only 2 weeks away!  Here's your preview of whats going on this year.

Reading

You will still get a raffle ticket for reading at least one book every week.  However, you can now earn up to 3 more raffle tickets every week!  That means you can get up to 4 tickets with your name on them in every weekly drawing.  So here are the other three ways you can earn raffle tickets:

1. Attend at least one program that week (you can't get additional tickets for attending more than one, sorry, just 1 per week!)
2. Submit at least one photograph to the Night Time Photography Show (Again, only 1 ticket.  But feel free to submit multiple photographs!  The picture will be displayed at the library later in the summer)
3. Write a book review for the Teen Blog.

Now all of that is just super right...if the prizes are good.  So what are the prizes?

Week 1

Two $10 Gift Certificates to Dari Serv

Week 2

Two $10 Carmines Pizza Gift Certificates

Week 3

Digital Waterproof Camera

Week 4

Hunger Games Beach Towel

Week 5

Three $10 iTunes Gift Cards

Week 6

Everyone who participates in week 6 will get a book of their choice!

So, those are some decent prizes, right?  I hope you like them :)
