2020 MCL Summer Reading Challenge:
* June 15th – August 15th *
Summer is upon us and that means it is time for Mukwonago Community Library’s Summer Reading Challenge: “Dig Deeper – Read, Investigate, Discover.” Registration has begun! Despite the pandemic, we are dedicated to forging on with our annual Summer Reading Program, it just may look a little different than in years past. Click HERE to get started or continue reading for full details.
Due to the impact COVID-19 has had on our community, we have decided to support local businesses and organizations that have so generously supported *us* in the past. While all challenge participants will earn a shot at our grand prize — an Orion SpaceProbe Telescope, the majority of all other rewards and prizes will be gift cards and purchases from local stores and restaurants.
We have challenges for four different age groups.
- Preschool Challenge for ages 0-4
- School Age Challenge for ages 5-12
- Teen Challenge for ages 13-17
- Adult Challenge for ages 18+
