Joyce offers prizes to participants in Summer Book Club

CHICAGO HEIGHTS – To encourage young people to continue learning this summer, State Senator Patrick Joyce is reminding parents to sign up their children for his Summer Book Club for students who live in the 40th State Senate District.

“Keeping your mind active with reading makes your brain stronger,” said Joyce (D-Essex). “I hope that kids of all ages will take advantage of this opportunity and be rewarded for their hard work.”

The Summer Book Club requires students to read eight books of their choice during the summer break, record the names of the books on a form and return the form to Joyce’s office by Aug. 11. Everyone who completes the Summer Book Club will receive a gift card and certificate from Senator Joyce.

Visit SenatorPatrickJoyce.com to download and print the form. Parents can also call Joyce’s Kankakee or Chicago Heights offices at 708-756-0882 to request a copy by mail.

Joyce urges interested residents to call his office with any additional questions.
