In honor of the Winter Olympics kicking off on February 6th, the Chincoteague Island Library is hosting our very own Olympics! 🏅

They may look a little different here at the library, but we firmly believe that reading should be an Olympic sport. That’s why we’ve created a Bookish Bingo Olympics, and we want you to participate!

Complete one bingo to earn a bronze medal, two bingos for a silver medal, and a full board wins gold—plus your name will be posted on our “Readers Podium Wall” AND entered into a raffle for a chance to win something cold and sweet, perfect for the Winter Olympics season ❄️🍦

Be sure to stop in starting on Monday to pick up your Bookish Bingo Olympics card! The Olympics will run from Monday, February 2nd through Saturday, February 28th, so you’ll have plenty of time to read, mark off your squares, and go for gold.

Ready, set, read! 📚🥇

(Participating Remotely? Take a photo of your marked Bingo card and email it to [email protected] with “Olympics” in the subject line.

Please include your contact information in the body of the email.

Your name will be added to the Readers Podium Wall, and you’ll be entered into the drawing.  All emails must be received by February 27. Questions—call the library!)

Join us each month to enjoy quality time with your toddler and/or preschooler while engaging in developmentally appropriate activities. Each session will include a teacher-led period with stories and songs, as well as an exploratory playtime with toys, manipulatives, sensory materials, and art projects related to each month’s theme.

• For children ages 2–5 (parents/guardians are required to stay with their children)

• Open to member and non-members

• No fee or pre-registration required
