Summer Reading Program sets sail

POMEROY–Get ready to dive into Oceans of Possibilities Summer Reading 2022 at the Denny Ashby Library!

Readers of all ages are encouraged to make a splash and join in as there is a version for everyone (children, teens, and adults).

Registration begins Thursday, June 9 and the program runs through August 25. To participate, children who are pre-readers through incoming 6th graders set a goal for the number of books they plan to read (or have read to them) during the 10 weeks of summer vacation.

Small prizes are awarded as progress is made toward reading goals. Those who complete their goals get a coupon for an ice-cream cone at Meyers and the opportunity to choose a book for the library’s collection. A bookplate is placed inside honoring their reading efforts.

Teen and adult participants play “Oceans of Reading Possibilities Bingo” for a chance to win one of four $50 cash prizes.

Registration will kick-off June 9 at 12:30 p.m. and participants will have until the end of June to stop by the library and set their goals/pick up bingo cards.
