Where Do I Register?
Register online here. Or come to the library to register and we'll get you all set up. If you'd like a t-shirt, please let us know your size by July 10th! (T-shirts will be given out at the Finale Party on August 17th.
How it Works
Each book you read throughout the summer wins you a scratch ticket. You can also win scratch tickets for:
writing book reviews,
attending library programs,
helping out in the pizza garden,
or completing missions, brainteasers and word searches on Readsquared.
Anyone who reads a total of 6 or more books or completes the Bingo Challenge (or both!) will win a free book of their choice as a completion prize (and extra scratch tickets). So if the Bingo isn't really your thing, you can read freely whatever you choose!

Scratch Tickets
Scratch tickets are sometimes instant prize winners of small or medium prizes, and if not, they still count as raffle tickets for the bigger prizes. You get 1 scratch ticket just for registering, and then 1 for every book you finish or bingo square you finish throughout the summer.
Prizes - Everyone Wins Something!
Prizes range from small or medium-sized prizes won throughout the summer to bigger one-of-a-kind prizes drawn at the end, such as a Book-to-Movie Pack, a leather writing journal, and a laptop backpack. Raffle prizes will be drawn at the end of the summer Finale Party on August 17th.
You can also win a book just by completing the Bingo Challenge (or reading 6 books).
