NC Athletics partners with the Newberry Co. Library for its Summer Reading Program
As the school year winds down and classes come to an end, children of all ages look forward to great weather and the freedom of summer.
This year, the Newberry County Library and Newberry College will provide an opportunity for students to continue learning through the summer with the incentive of a free ticket to a 2009 Newberry College home football game for completing their summer reading program.
“We couldn’t be happier to partner with the Newberry County Library on this great endeavor,“ said associate athletic director Matt DeWitt. “It is important to Newberry College to not only educate our students here on campus but that we encourage all ages to pick up a book and expand their horizons.“
The summer reading program is open to all kids, age 18 years old and younger, and provides each of them the freedom to choose what they would like to read over the break.
There are no set books or number of books to read, rather each participant will track the amount of minutes that they read in a log, working their way to a benchmark level set by their age range.
Registration will begin on Wednesday, June 3, with a kick-off party from 2 p.m. until 4 p.m.
Contracts and forms will be available Monday through Friday 9 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. throughout June and July.
All reading logs will be due back by Friday, July 24, at 5 p.m.
