The Chattahoochee Valley Libraries have a great way to encourage you to read this holiday season and new year!
Starting December 15 and running through January 31, 2024, readers in the Valley can participate in the 2023-24 Winter Reading Challenge for a chance to win $25 and $100 gift cards and more!
Similar to the Libraries’ popular Summer Reading Challenge, the Winter Reading Challenge can be completed by any one at any age. The rules are simple:
- For children, read (or be read) 30 books
- For older children (who read chapter books), teens and adults, read for 15 hours
You will be able to track your reading one of two ways:
- Track your progress online with the BEANSTACK Reading Challenge App! Or log in online at our Beanstack website. Yes, you can use your same account from the Summer Reading Challenge!
- Download, Print and fill out a reading log:
That’s it! One you have hit your goal, stop by your favorite branch of the Chattahoochee Valley Libraries (if you filled out a printed log, bring that with you). We’ll check your log and you’ll be given a completion prize and will be entered into the Grand Prize drawing for a $25 to $100 VISA gift card.
Let’s start Reading! and Winning!
