Reading Punch Card
Earn a pin by completing the punch card found in this bag.
Bring your card to the Youth Services desk once a week, between July 6th and July 30th to have your card punched. On the line next to the star, you can write the title of the book, a date and the amount of time you read that day, or a date and the number of pages you read that day.
