Step 3: Color a space for each day you meet your reading goal. 

Step 4: Take the tracker to the Library to pick up a small prize and a ticket for every 10 days you read.  

Step 5: Enter tickets in raffle boxes for a chance to win special prizes. 

Step 6: Turn in completed trackers for an extra raffle ticket.  

*The SRP ends July 31. All prizes must be picked up by noon Sat., Aug. 15.
