Applebees Supports Summer Reading


This summer children ages 13 and younger will have a reading partner at the Destin Library thanks to local Applebee’s Neighborhood Restaurants. Concord Neighborhood Group, of Lincoln, Nebraska, has supplied the Destin Library with Summer Reading Program coupons that can be redeemed at local Applebee’s restaurants (Destin, Pensacola and Crestview) for a free Kid’s Meal.

According to Will Rogers, Reference and Youth Services librarian at the Destin Library, “children participating in the program must read 10 books during the summer-time period and then complete a special 2009 Summer Reading Log (Click here to download) before receiving their coupon.” 2009 Summer Reading Logs are available at the circulation desk at the Destin Library.

“Support for summer-time reading programs for children and young adults is a welcomed gift from our local businesses” Rogers said.

Area businesses interested in supporting summer-time or event specific programming for children and young adults at the Destin Library are encouraged to call Will Rogers at 837.8572.
