From March 14th to April 30th, Drake Community Library is sponsoring a Spring Reading Challenge. We challenge patrons of all ages to read at least 20 minutes a day and keep track of their reading on our Beanstack site at https://grinnelliowa.beanstack.org/ or with the Beanstack app for mobile devices. After you register, come into the library and choose a free book from the Friends of Drake Community book store. Tracking minutes in Beanstack gains readers entry into drawings for $20 in Chamber Bucks to use at over 200 local businesses.
We challenge our patrons to read a total of 150,000 minutes for the Spring Challenge. Participants in the Winter Challenge exceeded our 50,000 minute goal and read 72,901 minutes. With an additional two weeks of reading in the Spring Challenge, we are confident readers can get to 150,000 minutes. Get reading!
