Summer Reading Challenge Through MCPL
Montgomery County Public Libraries’ Summer Reading Challenge offers kids and teens a chance to fill their summer with great books and fun activities. This year, they are partnering with Levine Music, Olney Theatre Center, and the Arts and Humanities Council of Montgomery County to help make the Arts more accessible to youth in Montgomery County.
Children 0-12 can earn e-badges throughout the summer and be:
- A Star Performer (starting June 14) - help Levine Music make more music lessons accessible to students in Montgomery County.
- A Master Thespian (starting July 6) - help the Olney Theatre Center build classrooms for their educational programs.
- An Innovative Artist (starting August 3) - help the Arts and Humanities Council of Montgomery County with their Fall Youth Art Summit.
- Join in by reading books, completing creative learning activities, and attending library programs all summer long. You'll receive a book at sign-up and earn e-badges throughout the summer! You’ll also have a chance to earn Washington Nationals baseball tickets (while supplies last), plus gain entries for exciting raffles!
