Summer Read program halfway complete, still time to join

The Toledo Lucas County Public Library is about halfway done with its Summer Read program, but there is still time for people to sign up, participate, and complete the challenge.

Even if readers sign up now, they are still free to count any reading they’ve completed since June 1 to the goal of reading 30 days this summer.

When readers sign up for the program, they will receive a pencil bag. Once readers complete half of the challenge, they will receive a mood pencil. At the end, kids and teens will get their choice of a book to take home, and adults will be given a mug. All participants are also entered in a grand prize drawing.

Summer Read ends Aug. 3, and all prizes must be picked up by Aug. 17.
