You can read ahead of schedule, but prizes won’t be available until their release date. If you miss a week, you can collect it the next time.
For example, if you come in June 18, and haven’t gotten any prizes yet, you can pick up prize number 1 and 2. If you’ve read past that point, and are ready for prize 3, you’ll have to wait until June 24 to get that next prize.
Prizes will be available any time after their first availability date until July 27, while supplies last.

How Do I Play?
Challenge:
- Readers have 8 weeks (June 3 – July 27) in which to explore the regions of space!
- Each goal consists of being reading for 1 hour 40 minutes.
- You may use chapter books (JF), comic-format books (JG & TWG), true books (J001-J999), Speedy Reader series (SRK), and Read-along books with audio CDs (RAK).
- Digital books and audios are also allowed. rbdigital and Overdrive are available for free. Click their links below.
- Bring in your initialed reading log when you have reached a reading goal to receive a prize. If you’re playing online this year and don’t have a paper log, just tell them your name at the Summer Reading Booth and they can look you up.
- Each “space mission” challenge has additional activities you can choose to do in place of 2 reading icons; each one may be used only once per challenge. For example, you may only count attending a library program once per challenge.
Activities:
- STEM with a Story – every Wednesday at 12:00 pm at Smith Park
