Warren County Library
Summer Reading Program! There are so many awesome events happening at the library this summer, we hope that every kid in Warren County signs up for the reading program and comes to the library. For those of you who’ve never done the reading program before, here’s how it works. Starting on Saturday June 2nd, children can come to the library to sign up. They will receive a free pizza bookmark, a reading log and if they want, their name and photo on our giant wall ice cream cone. Every week, keep track of the title and author of each book you read, and also write down how many minutes it took you to finish it (rounded up to the nearest 15 minutes. So if you read for 52 minutes, just write down an hour). Bring your reading log into the library. For children younger than five years old, for each hour of reading, you win a prize. For children six years and older, two hours of reading will win you a prize. You can win up to two prizes a week. Any reading above and beyond this amount will earn participants a pizza topping to decorate our giant wall pizza. Children are not required to read library books. They can read books from home, e-books, magazines, comic books, chapter books, non-fiction—basically any format. We just want participants to have fun and keep reading throughout the summer. If children are too young to read on their own, even if they are older than five years old, parents can read aloud to them and it still counts for the program. Prizes include stickers, pencils, fake tattoos, toys, puzzles, books, coupons for area restaurants, tickets to three local baseball teams, t-shirts, tote bags, iTunes gift cards and more. Kids that complete at least half of the program will be eligible for a raffle at our closing carnival. The grand prize will be an MP3 player, so sign up for the reading program for a chance to win! Our kickoff event begins at 2 pm on June 2nd, where kids can decorate their own aprons and chef hats. Guest presenters Entertainers Crafts Movie Tuesdays at 2 pm (sponsored by the Friends of the Library) Plus storytimes every Thursday at 10 am. All events are free and open to the public.
