Fairfield Public Library
Summer Reading Challenge
 

As you may have heard the Fairfield Public Library

visited Riverfield last week to share details

about the Summer Reading Challenge!

 

Here are some details to sign up!

 

Find your inner detective this summer at the library!

Last summer you cast your votes

and our new library mascot is now the fox!

 

This summer we will solve a few mysteries…

what is our mascot’s name? What do they like to read?

And of course – what will YOU read this summer?!

What stories captivate you? Will you try something new?

Solve the mysteries and explore all the genres storytelling

has to offer this summer!

 

Read, write book reviews, attend events, and complete

bonus activities to earn points and reach your goal this year!

 

Browse the Badges area to find your point goals

and extra activities to stay engaged this summer.

All virtual badges unlock tickets for Grand Prizes.

When you unlock a points badge, visit the library to post

it on your open book tracker!

 

Prizes for point badges along the way include brag tags,

a free book, a lawn sign, and for those reaching

the bonus 1,500 points level – an FPL *fox* plushie! 

 

Riverfield night is

Wednesday, June 19 at 6:30 PM

 

We hope to see you at the Fairfield Library!
