Milwaukee Bucks Library Reading Challenge

The Racine Public Library, 75 Seventh St., is participating in the Milwaukee Bucks
Reading Challenge. The Milwaukee Bucks, The Northwestern Mutual Foundation and the
Milwaukee County Federated Library System have partnered to execute the "Milwaukee
Bucks Library Reading Challenge". The reading challenge is open to all Wisconsin young-
adults in the 3rd - 10th grades. The purpose of the reading program is to promote literacy
and library usage by youth in Milwaukee and statewide communities ... "The more you read,
the more you win!" With each page read, the students score points. When a predetermined
number of points are achieved, students become eligible to receive a variety of prizes,
including Bucks game tickets and a chance to win a Bucks autographed basketball. The
challenge begins today and goes through February 28th. For more information on the
Milwaukee Bucks Reading Challenge, stop in the Children's Department at the Library.
