  • Teens 13-18 will be logging minutes.

  • There will be weekly prize drawings for anyone who logged at least 30 minutes the previous week.

    • For example, if you read and logged 5 minutes every day from June 5th - June 11th, you would qualify for the drawing on June 13th.

    • Paper logs must be turned in by Saturday (of the logging week). So if the drawing is on June 13th, the paper logs must be turned in by June 10th.

    • There will be 7 weekly drawings. 

  • At the end of the contest, the top Teen reader (most minutes logged) will win a $100 Amazon Gift Card.

    • The top Teen reader will be announced on July 29th.
