Redefined Summer Reading Program starts soon

0

EVPLSpark a Reaction at the library this summer during the Evansville Vanderburgh Public Library’s Summer Reading Program. Entry cards will be available at any EVPL location beginning June 2. The program will end July 28. All ages are invited to participate for a chance to win prizes.

Customers will find a revamped program this year, with an easier, quicker format and more ways to earn prize entries. Entry cards, called SPARK cards, are modeled after Bingo cards. Each square will contain an activity, like read a book, attend a library program, read a magazine, visit a library location, and others. Participants will mark the boxes as they complete the activity, and they will be entered to win a prize when a row is completed. Bonus entries will be awarded for completing an entire card.

Adults will have the chance to win cash prizes, teens can win cash and gift cards, and prizes for kids include interactive toys and passes to local attractions.

In 2013, nearly 10,000 people participated in the EVPL’s Summer Reading Program.

Thank you to the Public Library Friends, this year’s program sponsor.
