The Racine Public Library's seven week long, 2008 Summer Reading Challenge ended on August 2 with over 1500 library patrons participating. The annual reading contest challenged participants to read the selected number of books for their age group, and to visit the library ten times over the summer. School age children were also challenged to complete a family activity bingo game during the contest. Those people who completed their challenges received a small gift courtesy of the Racine Public Library and coupons from Pizza Hut, State Park passes from the Wisconsin DNR, and free admission tickets from the Renaissance Faire. Participants also had their names entered in a drawing for a Wii Game System and other prizes donated by Barnes and Noble of Racine.
The 2008 Grand Prize winners were:
Amanda Van Swol – winner of the Wii
Barb Chernouski, Laura Cardenas and Miranda Fair – winners of Barnes and Noble gifts.
The Racine Public Library, 75 Seventh St., thanks all participants and sponsors for helping to make this year's challenge the huge success it was. The 2009 reading challenge, "Be Creative @ Your Library" and "Express Yourself @ Your Library" will begin on June 15, 2009.
