Hi,

I work at a small library out in the country (yeehaw!). Like everybody else we host a summer reading program for both kids and adults that uses a bingo-type sheet filled with reading challenges. Our kid program does pretty well, our adult program...not so much. So while it might not affect this year specifically, I am looking into ideas to help boost our participation.

What I am wondering:

• What do you all do for your summer programs for ADULTS that gets good engagement?

and

• What do you do for adult prizes, especially with minimal or no specific budget for it? (Last year we had book giveaways and a kindle, but it was all items that had been donated so 95% of the books were typically Patterson/Cussler/Evanovich/other suspense, and we can't buy a kindle on the budget we have now.)

Thanks in advance! :)
