Winter Reading Program
Winter is upon us, and that means our Winter Reading Program is right around the corner!
This program is a month-long, all-ages, reading challenge that takes place in the middle of winter. So, for those of you who have said you wanted to read more in the new year, this is the program for you! This year, we have a board game challenge.
Pick up a game board from any of our library branches between January 21st and February 22nd and play your way across the board (a die will be provided). Or you can download the board and use your own die! Turn in your completed game board to any of the branches for a free book and a special edition sticker!
Playing is easy!
1. Roll a die and beginning from the “Start” position, count that number of circles.
2. Complete the challenge listed on the circle and ‘X’ out the circle once you complete that specific challenge. There’s one challenge per circle.
3. After your first challenge is completed, repeat steps 1-2 and move along the game board until you reach “Finish.”
4. When you’ve landed on “Finish,” congratulations! You’ve won Winter Reading.
Once you are finished, please bring your completed game board to any library location to claim your prize. We will be distributing Winter Reading prizes until MARCH 1ST.
If you have finished the game once, you are more than welcome to play again. Just ask library staff for a fresh game board. Subsequent finished game boards are eligible to be returned to the library for a small prize.
Remember, audiobooks and graphic novels are considered books too!
Because this challenge is for all ages, please note that we did our best to make this game board for every age. We understand if you need to adapt a challenge for a younger reader.
