Summer Reading Challenge

We have been having a great time here with our Summer Reading Challenge! Kids, teens, and adults have all been getting their raffle tickets for the books they’ve read so far, and have been grabbing our activity bags to take home for some hands-on fun.

Just a reminder that our challenge ends Saturday, August 21st. Please turn in your reading logs so we can keep track of how many books have been read for our Community Read as well. Our goal is 1,000 books as a community this year. We will have our raffle drawing on Tuesday, August 24th and will give the lucky winners calls that day. Our prizes include:  gift certificates to Hayes True Value, Paris Farmers Union, Bavarian Chocolate Haus, and Reny’s; and for kids we have I-Spy Eagle Eye, What Came First (game), STEM Robotic Kit, Yahtzee, and Classic Lego set. 

Thank you to the Friends of Bridgton Library for their generous financial support of our Summer Reading Challenge. We are so lucky to have you!
