Description


It’s time once again for the Henderson Libraries Summer Reading Challenge! Beginning June 1 and continuing through July 31, this fun-for-all event allows you to get rewarded for something you enjoy doing reading! And, it’s not just for kids…adults are eligible to participate, too. With the theme Oceans of Possibilities, this year’s Summer Reading Challenge is open to two distinct age groups: Kids and Teens (ages 4 - 17) and Adults (ages 18+). 


On the summer reading website link, you’ll also find book suggestions for children based on their ages and reading abilities. The link also lists a number of special events that will take place as part of the challenge. It’s easy to track your reading time—just download the Beanstack app. A unique feature of the app is that parents and caregivers can have their account as well as their family's accounts all under one convenient login. It’s simple to switch between family members to track participants’ reading and activities. Download the Beanstack app from the App Store or GooglePlay, and then look for "Henderson Libraries." You can also just go straight to Beanstack to pre-register from your device.


Everyone always looks forward to the great raffle prizes that participants can win by logging their reading minutes. For kids and teens, one online raffle ticket will be earned for every five hours read. You’ll even have the opportunity to select which raffle prize you hope to win.  




For every five hours logged by an adult participant, one automatic entry to win a gift card will be registered.  In addition, adults can earn bonus raffle entries by participating in the library’s One Book, One Henderson community book club and related events this summer HERE.
“We look forward to this event every year,” says Henderson Libraries Executive Director Marcie Smedley. “We enjoy connecting with our community and are so glad to have a variety of in-person programs to support the Summer Reading Challenge this year.”


Established in 1944 as a single library in Downtown Henderson, Henderson Libraries operates four locations in Henderson, providing free access to materials, programs, and services to meet the diverse and varied needs of the community throughout Southern Nevada.
