Teen Summer Reading Program

"Scare up a Good Book" at the Mahomet Public Library Teen Summer Reading Program (for teens entering grades 6-12)

July 25-Aug. 28, 2010

Read the library books, magazines, and newspapers you enjoy (or listen to a book on CD/cassette), and for every 3 hours of reading, enter a grand prize drawing for one of five $10 bookstore gift cards.

Every time you read 15 minutes, mark a box off on your entry form. When you’ve read 3 hours, bring your entry form with your name and phone number to the Mahomet Public Library to be entered into our grand prize drawing. Then pick up another form, and read your way towards another entry! All entries must be turned in to the library by August 28.

Entry forms available in the library, or print one from the library web page (www.mahometpubliclibrary.org). For more information, contact the Mahomet Public Library at 586-2611.
