Victorville summer reading program offers weekly prize drawings, performances and Movie Fridays

VICTORVILLE – The Victorville City Library invites residents to this year’s free “Level Up at Your Library!” Summer Reading Program, beginning June 9.

The city said the Summer Reading Program is designed to inspire a love of reading that encourages participants to read a set number of minutes each day or week based on their age group.

Every week after readers complete their reading log, they will earn rewards including a free book, a fun incentive, and a raffle ticket for weekly prize drawings.

At the end of the six-week challenge, readers who complete their weekly logs will be entered into the grand prize raffle drawing.
