Summer Reading: May 27 – August 5, 2023 

Summer Reading 2023 is here! Participants of all ages are encouraged to make reading a habit by tracking daily reading and earning prizes throughout the summer. Participants can register throughout the summer, but there are some special rewards for early birds: 

Summer Reading participants will earn prizes for every 10 days they read. Complete a whole 30-day reading log for a free book and entry into the grand prize raffle drawing. Teens who finish their reading log are also invited to the annual Teen Lock-In. 

This year’s grand prizes include $50 gift cards, Nintendo Switch Lite, Cricut Explore Air 2, Pyxel Coding Dog, Nerf set, how-to-draw set, and preschool building set. 

Summer Reading is made possible through our local community supporters including the Friends of the Pickerington Public Library, King’s Island, Ohio Renaissance Fair, Ohio State Fair, and Ohio State Parks.  Local business supporters include Nothing Bundt Cakes, Combustion Brewery, Crumbl, Al’s Delicious Popcorn, Heartland Bank, Raising Cane’s, Taco Bell, and Dairy Queen.
