1. Welcome to YRL’s Teen SRC!
Thanks. How do I participate? Look through our challenge cards and pick one! The more of it you complete, the more entries you will earn into the draw. What’s up for grabs in the draw? We will pool all entries and draw three names, who will each win a $50 gift card to the retailer of your choice, such as Chapters, Cineplex, or iTunes!

2. Sweet! Can I connect with other people doing the challenges?
Absolutely! We are running this contest through Facebook.
Visit us at:
Like the page and PM your name, library and contact info for a free entry into the draw!
Post pictures of your progress through your Challenge Card: pictures of you doing challenges, of your completed challenges, or anything else you want!
Do not to include your full name or any contact info in your posts.
Aliases welcome!

3. How do I qualify to enter the draw?
Completion of challenges in multiples of 3 (but less than a full card) earns one entry per trio. Completion of a full card with challenges earns 5 entries; cards with challenges earns 7 entries.
Examples:
Katelyn completes six challenges on her card before turning it in. She earns two entries (2 x 3 challenges).
Jack completes a full card of 10 challenges. He earns 5 entries.

4. Okay, so how do I get my entries into the draw? And when is it?
You have several choices. To enter the draw, you can:

You must provide your name, library, and contact information to be eligible to win. Draw for gift cards will take place on Friday, August 18th.
Good luck and have fun!
