Summer Reading 2025

Summer Reading 2025 is all about Leveling Up at Your Library!  Join us online using Beanstack (a free reading tracking software/app) to track the hours you read and for chances to win cool prizes! Also, stop by the library for Read and Bead! When you read you can earn special beads to decorate your very own challenge necklace.

To Participate:

  • Enroll in the Summer Reading 2025 Beanstack Challenge. The challenge officially starts June 23rd.
  • Log your hours using the app - you'll get online and in-person rewards!
  • Online: as you log hours you will be awarded cool virtual badges and tickets to enter into awesome weekly and grand prize raffle drawings!
  • At the library: the first time you check in with our volunteers you'll receive a challenge necklace and brag tag! Through August 23rd check in with our volunteers by telling them how many hours you have logged and they'll help you add nifty new beads to your necklace!
