If you are looking for ways to motivate you to read more as we begin the new year, the Wheatland Regional Library will be hosting a Winter Reading Challenge from January 1st to January 31st challenging readers of all ages to read 300 minutes (five hours).
By taking part in this challenge, you can get a chance to win one of three prizes, with a prize available for each age group – children, youth aged 12-17 and adults aged 18+.
Prizes for the children category (0-11) are a $50 Mastermind Toys gift card, Bananagrams or “Dog Man: Guide to Creating Comics in 3-D”. Youth prizes include a $50 Etsy gift card, a 1000-piece puzzle, or a rechargeable reading light.
Reading minutes can be tracked through Beanstack, or a paper reading log that can be picked up at the local library, or on the Wheatland Library website. Track your reading minutes and return your log to the Martensville Library for your chance to win.
