Beat the cold weather by curling up with a good read! All ages are encouraged to participate in our Winter Reading Challenge, which runs January 1-31, 2023. Everyone who reads 240 minutes will receive a small prize (while supplies last). As an added challenge, our goal is for participants to read a combined total of 115,382 minutes – one minute for each resident of Carlsbad. You can register for the challenge and log your minutes via Beanstack. We hope you will take part in the Winter Reading Challenge and help us reach our goal!
