Reading for Rides

Knowledge is a seed that grows when you read.

        Reading is fun, but it is also an important life skill, vital for the transition of youth to adulthood. In partnership with local libraries, “Reading for Rides” is an opportunity for children 12 years old and under to be rewarded for reading. In order to receive their reward, the “Reading for Rides” application needs to be completed (including the titles of the 5 books read for each child) and redeemed during Kids’ Day at the Montcalm County Fair on Friday, June 24. Upon doing so, recipients will be able to ride carnival rides from 1-4pm at the Montcalm County Fair on Friday, June 24 – for FREE! After the rides, families are welcome to enjoy other Kids’ Day festivities happening around the fairgrounds.

                                                                                                          Reading can grow on you too!
