Those who log five books or more and at least one activity into Beanstack will win a special prize*. You can find the full details on our website. Even though the Summer Reading program is coming to a close, there is still plenty of fun and educational activities for all ages all year long at sccld.org/. We hope you've enjoyed coloring your world with us this summer! *Completion prizes will be available August 1-31 while supplies last. |
