Go on a Summer Adventure this year with Library’s reading challenge

Buckle up and get ready to have fun as you go on a Summer Adventure! From June 1–July 31, stop by any of the 41 Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County locations to register and pick up your Adventure Kit, which includes a Summer Adventure passport, a free book and a voucher for a free view level ticket to a Cincinnati Reds game.

Then read, explore and create all summer! Record your reading and other activities —such as visiting museums and parks—in your passport. When you check in each week at a Library location, you will get a prize, a stamp in your passport and an entry into a drawing to win one of our weekly prizes.

One weekly prize winner will be chosen at each location starting June 12. At the end of the summer, all weekly entries will be added to the grand prize drawing. Grand prize winners will be chosen Aug. 1. They will receive tickets to Coney Island. Each week has a theme to help guide your Summer Adventure. Events and weekly prizes at each location will tie into these themes:

Week 1: June 4-10 — Science

Week 2: June 11-17 — Pop Culture

Week 3: June 18-24 — Around the World

Week 4: June 25-July 1 — Community

Week 5: July 2-8 — America

Week 6: July 9-15 — The Arts

Week 7: July 16-22 — Maker & Technology

Week 8: July 23-29 — Sports & Games
