According to a program brochure this is a statewide initiative “to foster literacy programs in schools and encourage healthy exercise.” In the next two months students who participate have a good chance to win a new bike through reading because in this contest, the more books a student reads the better his or her chances are of winning a bike are.
The deadline for reading is June 10. During the week of June 13 a boy and a girl’s name will be drawn from each of the nine first and second grade classrooms at WES.
“The Masons will be providing 18 bikes with helmets and T-shirts,” commented Esty. “The drawings will take place in June just before school gets out. This gives them about two months of reading!”
