Prize Pick-Up Information
Goal prizes can be claimed throughout the duration of the Winter Reading Challenge, with extended prize pick-up available through Monday, March 10 at 9pm. While logging and bingo cards must be completed and turned in by Wednesay, March 5 at 9pm, we are adding in an extra unadvertised few days for guests to claim their goal prizes. Locations should develop their own methods for Winter Reading prize pickup and service based on their staffing and layout.
If someone comes in to claim a prize during the grace period and they haven't logged their reading yet, you'll need to enter and backdate it.
