To the editor:
Everyone knows about summer reading programs, but here in Shawano we don’t let the fun stop there! We have a Not-So-Summer Reading Program for teens that runs through Jan. 4.
Teens can register and participate in the library or online at shawanolibrary.org under the Programs/Teens! There will be five weekly prizes of $10 gift cards for local restaurants and five overall prizes of $50 gift cards from various retailers. Teens, ages 12-18, will get to choose which prizes they want to be entered for with each book they read or library program they attend. They are required to read teen or adult books or graphic novels from the library (any library within our system) to qualify. Children’s books, audio books, e-books, personal or school books, and movies do not qualify.
We will also feature the regular Teen Tuesday programming throughout the month with a few extra programs thrown in over the break. Teen Tuesdays include Create Space, a crafting program every first Tuesday; Minute 2 Win It, a different game every second Tuesday; Snack-a-Bration, a day to celebrate various food holidays every third Tuesday; and Take Two, where we re-do a previous popular program every fourth Tuesday.
