Summer Reading Program 2024 “Read, Renew, Repeat”
Embark on a literary adventure this summer with the Department of Defense (DoD) MWR’s innovative theme, “Read, Renew, Repeat.” Our libraries are focused on promoting the crucial concept of conservation in 2024 along with our ongoing commitment to supporting lifelong learning and educational enrichment for all families.
This summer, everyone can set a reading goal and collect rewards and earn prizes for reading anything they enjoy. Throughout the summer, the Fairchild Library will host a range of free activities for children, teens, and adults that encourage and support a love of reading. Join us in our mission to reach new heights this summer! Last year, our readers logged an impressive 477,000 minutes. Let’s aim even higher and collectively strive for 500,000 minutes in 2024! Here’s what you need to know:
