And the winner is ...

This summer Justin and Makenna participated in the Summer Reading Program at our local Poudre River Public Library. They had 2 different age group … Children under 4 and Children age 4 – 5th grade. Each program had age appropriate activities that they had to complete in order to earn prizes. They each had the chance to earn 2 prizes. I was really proud of both of them … they both completed their entire sheet and earned 2 prizes! Justin earned a free game of bowling and a free swim pass for the city pool … Makenna earned a free book and a scoop of ice cream from Ben & Jerry’s … as well as they both got 2 tickets for the grand prize drawing.

Ahhhhhhh … Lucky Makenna!! Out of 8,000+ names Makenna won 1 of the 6 Grand Prizes … she won a $50.00 gift card to Toys R Us. Lucky for Justin he has a great sister who loves to share. On Monday we went to Toys R Us for a little shopping trip. Makenna picked out a My Little Pony car … that she has been wanting for months!! Justin picked out a Camper and Car Lego set.

What a fun way to get rewarded for a summer full of reading.
