Bikes For Books

    sqcomp071.gifBikes for Books is a reading incentive program designed  for children in grades K-8. Bikes For Books is very simple. Each student is asked to read as many books as they can in a set amount of time. For each book the student reads they get an entry form to fill out. The entry form includes the name of the book, a short description of the book, the name, grade, and class of the student. After they complete the entry form they put it into the appropriate container for their class. The more books they read, the more entry forms they can put into the drawing. At the end of the quarter members of the Lodge and staff from the schools will go to school during an assembly with the new bikes and helmets to draw one entry form from out of each container (one boy and one girl from each grade). The student whose name is on the entry form gets a new bike and helmet to take home.

These were 2 of the bikes given to the drawing winners at the Everson City librarary. Over 6,300 + books were read by the childern of the Everson area this Summer!
