Read for prizes
The 2015 Adult Summer Reading Program is on at all four North Olympic Library System locations: Sequim, Port Angeles, Forks and Clallam Bay.
To participate, pick up a reading log at the one of the libraries — and check out some books — and keep track of each book you finish by July 31. For every complete book you read, you will receive one entry in the program’s grand prize drawing; the more you read, the better your chances of winning.
Two winners will be drawn, and each will have a choice among four grand prize options: a $150 gift card from Adventures through Kayaking, Port Angeles Whale Watch Co. or Rite Bros. Aviation, or a package with Victoria ferry tickets, an Olympic National Park pass and a Swain’s gift card.
Also over the next six weeks, the North Olympic Library System will host Summer Reading Program events and drawings for gift certificates to Friends of the Library bookstores at the various libraries.
To find out more about the program, check in at the Sequim Library, 630 N. Sequim Ave.; the Port Angeles Library, 2210 S. Peabody St.; the Forks Library at 171 S. Forks Ave. or the Clallam Bay at 16990 state Highway 112.
