The Destin Library’s 2022 Summer Reading Program will set sail soon! This year, Oceans of Possibilities await readers with weekly themes exploring what the ocean provides as well as its mysteries and myths. Children and adults will be able to compete in reading challenges for badges and prizes including a grand prize drawing at the end of the summer. There will be weekly special events and activities for the whole family like presentations by the Center for Aquatic Sciences and the Choctawhatchee Basin Alliance, special storytimes, movies, and themed game nights. The kick-off bash for the Summer Reading Program will be held on the lawn at the Destin Library on June 3, from 5-7 p.m., with lawn games, popcorn, snow cones, and FUN!
To sign up for Summer Reading, create an account through our Beanstack website at cityofdestin.beanstack.org or download the Beanstack app on your mobile device. Beanstack is a digital reading log where you will keep track of your summer reading challenge minutes and activities. The more minutes you log, the closer you get to earning reading rewards and earning entries into the grand prize drawings. Pre-registration on Beanstack will open on May 27.
All Summer Reading events will be posted on the Okaloosa County Public Library Cooperative’s calendar at okaloosa.librarycalendar.com. Each event will be posted with a registration form. Event space will be limited, so registration is suggested.
If you need any assistance signing up with Beanstack or if you have any other questions, please contact the library at 850-837-8572 or library@cityofdestin.com.
