Saturday,
June 8 – Saturday, August 10, 2013

Did
you know that students experience learning losses when they do not engage in
educational activities during the summer? In contrast, children who participate
in educational activities all summer start their next school year ready to
learn. Help prevent learning loss in your child with the free offerings at your
local library.
The
Scott County Library System offers a summer’s worth of fun and enriching
activities and reading incentives for kids 0-18 years of age with Bookawocky: A
Celebration of Summer Reading. New this summer: kids will have the option of
participating in Bookawocky online!
Here’s
how to participate:
Earn Prizes (June 8
through August 10).
- Earn virtual “badges” for things like minutes of reading, writing reviews, and going to library programs.
- You’ll get a free book when you complete 10 badges and a Bookawocky book pack when you complete 20 badges.
- Track your badges on paper with our special form OR (NEW!) online with the new Bookawocky website.
Win State Fair tickets.
- Read a book & complete a review form to enter weekly drawings for 4-packs of State Fair tickets (you may only win once).
