Summer Reading by the Numbers, Part II

Now that we have officially wrapped up Summer Reading, it is time to share some stats. After counting each and every adult entry, Team Einstein came out on top!  The team read 1,377 books! Isn't that amazing!?  Team Curie wasn't too far behind with 1202 books.  Congratulations Team Einstein!

We had 389 adult participants and when you add the total number of entries from each team you get 2,579.  If you divide the number of entries by the number of participants, you'll find that the average adult summer reading participant read 6.62982 books. (Don't ask me exactly how you read 6.62982 books...) I am impressed! 

I'm sure that the numbers were equally impressive for the children and teen programs,  as the library was bustling with activities, programs and lots of participation from people of all ages!  I'm sure that some of our other bloggers will  tell you all about it in upcoming posts!

The summer didn't come to a close without some lucky winners!  Kimberly B. was the grand prize winner, and Marie Y., Anne R., Judy S., Honesty B., Donna Jo C., and Michelle B. won Starbucks gift cards and travel mugs.

We hope you'll join us for more summer fun again next year!  In the meantime, we hope you'll stop in for a program or to check out books, DVDs, video games, or whatever your heart desires!

Happy reading,

Jennifer
