[kids-lib] Smokey the Bear Reading Challenge

[BERGQUIST Greta E * SLO]

Hi everyone,

I've gotten some questions about the Smokey the Bear Reading Challenge<https://smokeybear.com/library-reading-challenge>, and wanted to let you know any Oregon library is welcome to sign up if you'd like!

Libraries can sign-up to participate and receive Smokey Swag kits at: https://forms.office.com/g/Quc0Ff1TRC. If your library has multiple branches, the Forest Service would like to ship all items to a main location for internal distribution for libraries within the same system. So if each library system with multiple branches could only fill out the form once, indicating the number of kits and who to send them to, that would be greatly appreciated. For each interested library in a system, we can provide 1 roll of 500 Smokey stickers, 1 pack of 50 Smokey cards, and 1 Smokey stamp.

There is a Digital Tool Kit<https://smokeybear.com/en/for-educators> available for running the challenge, lots of resources there.  If this is something your patrons would find useful, please feel free to opt in!


Best,
Greta
