Reading Rivals - All Hands On Deck!

Wilmington, We Need Your Help!

SENDING OUT AN SOS: Wilmington, we need your help! Our current numbers are looking a little bleak, but have no fear, we still have plenty of time to catch up! If you can commit to reading just a few hours a day, we can catch up to Tewksbury by Friday! And don't forget, we're raffling off some exciting prizes to people who participate in the competition. 

Congratulations to Ashley S. for being this week's raffle prize winner. Each week we'll be raffling off a $20 gift card to a local restaurant. Plus, if you log at least 3 hours of reading, you'll be entered into our Grand Prize drawing for a $100 gift card to any local business of your choosing!

If you haven't registered for this year's competition yet, sign up here to help us out-read Tewksbury!

If you're not sure how to use Beanstack, check out this 18 second video. Or, you can let us do the logging for you! Grab a paper log at the library, or create your own at home. If you're jotting down your minutes on paper, please make sure to bring those logs back to the library so we can enter your minutes!

Don't forget to tell your friends, family, co-workers--anyone you can about Reading Rivals and encourage them to log their minutes to help us beat Tewksbury! We can do it, Wilmington! 

More about this reading challenge:
Help us out-read Tewksbury and keep The Reading Cup in our second annual 'Reading Rivals' Competition! Win weekly prize raffles along the way and even be entered into the grand prize raffle just for completing 3 hours of reading! Use your existing Beanstack account for our summer reading challenge or sign up for one here at https://wilmlibrary.beanstack.org/.

This fall (October 1 through November 23), log your reading as we climb the leaderboard to the top. The winning library will receive bragging rights for one year, or until we all compete again! 

Each library will also have their own weekly prize drawings for our participating patrons. Here in Wilmington, the weekly prizes are $20 gift cards to local businesses! Log at least 3 hours of reading and be entered into our Grand Prize drawing for a $100 gift card to a Wilmington business of your choice!
