House Minority Leader Tony McCombie is officially launching her 9th Annual Summer Reading Club for elementary school students who live or go to school in the 89th District. The “Reading BUZZ” program is offered to encourage students to start or continue positive reading habits.
“I am thrilled that for 9 consecutive years I have hosted this program with the goal of encouraging students to keep reading,” said McCombie. “Summer learning is important, but it can also be fun, and this program is intended to do just that.”
Reading BUZZ challenges elementary school students to read eight (8) books before July 14th.
The summer reading program form is available at area libraries, or online through Leader McCombie’s website: RepMcCombie.com under the “resources” tab. Participation in this program can overlap with any other summer reading program offered through area libraries, schools, or other organizations.
Participants will receive a special treat to reward them for their reading and will receive a certificate from State Representative Tony McCombie. To participate, a parent or guardian must fill out and sign the form and return it to Rep. McCombie’s office by July 14th: 9317B IL Rt 84, Savanna, IL 61074.
