Ready! Set!! READ!!!
Arlington Public Library and SouthWest Arlington Geocachers are partnering once again to bring you adventures in reading, fun summer activities, and a geocaching challenge. We hope you will Exercise Your Mind by reading a few books this summer and by finding the dozen caches we have hidden for you. Each of the caches this year will take you to a place where you can exercise or participate in a sport or just find a quiet place under a tree to read those books.
Find all 12 caches and receive a commemorative tag (first 90 finders by July 31st).
If you would like to participate in the Adult Summer Reading Program and be eligible for additional fun prizes, pick up a reading log from the library or enter online. Your goal is to read at least five hours between June 4 and July 30.
A book for you to add to your reading list: "Glory Road" by Coach Don Haskins
