The Thorntown Public Library has announced its upcoming Youth Winter Reading program kicking off next week that allows community youth to read and receive a prize alongside Chance, the Thorntown Library Cat.
“Chance is preparing for the winter weather by snuggling up with a good book and signing up for our Youth Winter Reading Challenge,” the library released.
The challenge kicks off Monday, Dec. 16 and extends through Jan. 25. Community members may sign up for the challenge on or after Dec. 16 and receive a bookmark log to log their reading hours between the timeframe. Participants who read six hours receive a raffle ticket for a grand prize and receive a free book. Those who receive six more hours get another raffle ticket.
Participants must visit the library before Jan. 25 with their completed hours to receive their raffle ticket and free book.
