Summer Reading Program

Drake Public Library’s Summer Reading Program is supported by Friends 100% and is a favorite among area school children.

Registration kicks-off in early June and all children are welcome to attend. All programs are free.

The Summer Reading Program is designed to keep children reading all summer long to help stay current on their reading levels. Along with promoting literacy and community, the two-month summer program is a great way to pass the hot summer months. Some recent events included: field trips, special programs, prizes and incentives.

Participants love the Big Prize Drawing!  Past prizes have included craft kits, gift certificates and bikes!

During the summer kids who participate in the Summer Reading Program read for a tremendous number of hours.
