PPLD Summer Adventure

The 2025 PPLD Summer Adventure presented by Friends of Pikes Peak Library District, runs through Thursday, July 31 at all library locations. This year’s theme is Color Our World. People of all ages can read, explore, and create their way to prizes this summer.
Anyone ages 0 – 18 participating in this year’s Summer Adventure program will receive a book for registering and can earn another prize when they complete the program. Studies have shown that having books at home increases literacy and learning for kids and teens, and that students who read over summer break retain more of their learning and have a stronger start when school resumes in the fall. Participants ages 19 and up will receive one entry into the grand prize drawing when they register. Everyone of all ages will also be entered into the grand prize drawing for complete 30 days of reading, creating, or exploring.
Participants can find activity ideas at ppld.org/summer
