Bicycle Winners

Drumroll please.....

I am excited to announce that our SRP bikes have both been claimed! Meet the winners below. I am including their totals as a point of interest for staff, but please don't publicize them. If people ask how many the winners read, just say "the most." Also, the names of the winners are not for public consumption at this time.



Rachel, age just-turned-10, read 122 hours! Her favorite book of the summer was Michelle Harrison's One Wish.



Amber, age 15, read 189 hours! She especially enjoys books about superheroes.
