Summer Reading Challenge: Read to Win Prizes!

We’re excited to announce our annual #readandchill Summer Reading Bingo for all ages!

We want to get kids off the screens and into books this summer.

Here are just a few reasons why:

• Books can increase your knowledge and vocabulary by 50%.
• Books can boost your mood! Studies show that people who read for fun are more likely to feel happy and confident.
• Books can lower your stress by 68% and lengthen your life by two years.
• Books can also make us kinder; research shows that reading about a character’s thoughts and feelings can make you more empathetic.

Here’s how it works:

1. Download your bingo board below for your age level and grab a book.
2. Write the title of each book, story, or article in the box as you complete the challenge.
3. Complete rows vertically, horizontally, or diagonally to win a prize from a local business.
4. Prizes can be claimed once per week. Prizes are first come, first serve – so come by as soon as you have 5 in a row!
5. Complete the entire board to enter to win one of our grand prizes. Turn in your completed Bingo boards by con Aug 6th. The winner will be drawn on Aug 7th, live on our Facebook page.
6. To claim your prize, text us at (423) 305-1599 to set up a time to stop by the center. We’re located at 2040 Hamilton Place Blvd, Ste. 780, Chattanooga, TN 37421.

Here’s what you get (just for reading!)

Prizes include goodies from Chick-Fil-A, Community Pie, Duck Donuts, Jason’s Deli, Jim-N’-Nick’s BBQ, Santi’s Mexican Grill, and more! Complete your whole board and be entered to win the grand prizes from Creative Discovery Museum, Zen Nails, and more!

Are you ready to start?

Consider carrying around a book this summer no matter where you go! That way you’ll always have something to do (and you can mark off some of your Bingo spots!) Happy Reading!
