Come to the Normal Public Library now and sign up for Teen Summer Reading 2010 to get your reading logs. All you have to do is keep track of your reading hours – it doesn’t matter how many books you read, or even if you’re reading books (magazines, newspapers, blogs, even audio books count too). For every five hours you read, bring your log back in and pick up a FREE paperback from hundreds of awesome books. When you complete all five sections on your log, turn it in for an entry in our grand prize raffle to be held at the end of the summer. Plus, if you fill out a mini book review postcard before July 3, you can enter one of two mid-program drawings for gift baskets with some of the hottest books of the past year plus lots of other goodies. Other big-ticket items you can win include a netbook computer, iPod nano, mp3 players, portable DVD player, t-shirts, gift cards for local restaurants and shops, swim passes, books, and more!
In addition to all of the reading for prizes you can do this summer, we’ve also got a lot of events for teens going down right here at the library. We’ll be scrapbooking, playing with duct tape, gaming with Rock Band and DDR, learning how to dance to Michael Jackson’s “Thriller”, battling it out in an Iron Chef competition, and more. You can check here for more information on upcoming summer events for teens, and don’t forget to stop by the library to sign up for the summer reading program!
