1.  Register
Register for summer reading online or in the library beginning Saturday, June 22. Anyone who pre-registers or registers during the Kickoff event will automatically be entered into the Kickoff raffle.

2.  Submit a Book Review
Submit a book review online or in the library beginning Saturday, June 22. Each book review earns one raffle ticket.

3.  BINGO Cards
Check off reading and activities on your BINGO card. Show your ticket to the Circulation Desk to receive a raffle ticket. Bingo cards are also available in Haitian Creole, Portuguese, and Spanish.

    • Each BINGO square checked earns one raffle ticket
    • 13 possible BINGOs per card
      • Each 5 box BINGO line earns an additional raffle ticket – horizontal line, vertical line, diagonal line.
      • Completed BINGO cards earn an additional raffle ticket.
    • Fill out as many BINGO cards as you like. Additional copies are available online and at the Circulation Desk.
    • If a book qualifies for multiple BINGO boxes, it can be used for all applicable boxes. However, the same book cannot be used for the same box twice.  (For example, if you read Dracula by Bram Stoker with another person and submit a review, that can count for the “Read a book,” “Read a book with another person,” and “Submit a review” boxes, but it will not be counted for “Read a book” twice.
