-
Use the Beanstack application on your phone, tablet or on the computer to log reading minutes, complete activities, write reviews and earn badges and prizes. (If you prefer a paper reading log, stop by the library.)
-
Read! Read! Read! Help us reach our 300,000 minute Community Reading Goal! As you log your reading minutes, you will earn badges and prizes, such as ice cream cones from Primo's, cookies from Casey's, free books, and more!
-
Complete activities in any or all of the four Adventure Pathways, earn that Adventure Pathway's Badge, and you will be eligible for special prizes.
-
Earn the required number of total badges for your challenge (10 badges for preschoolers and kids 6-11; 15 badges for teens and adults) to be eligible for a grand prize of an Amazon Gift Card.
Also, attend fun programs for all ages all summer long!
All programs are open to everyone, not just those who registered for Summer Reading.
Only three events require registration in advance:
the Great Bake Down Murder Mystery,
the Great Canton Bake Off Part 1 (Chocolate Chip Cookies) and
the Great Canton Bake Off Part 2 (Book Lover's Decorated Cake).
