Summer Wellness Challenge -- Bookmarked for Self-Care

The June reading challenge is officially underway!

As mentioned in the previously posted challenge announcement, the Wellness Subcommittee is encouraging employees to focus on self-care throughout the month of June by facilitating a summer reading challenge. Anyone who reads a book for enjoyment throughout the month of June will be entered into a drawing to win a prize, and anyone who reads a self-help book will be entered into the drawing twice. Three lucky winners will receive their choice of either an eReader or $100 worth of physical books.

This challenge is more about participation than competition, so no official sign-up will be required. We will simply send out a brief survey towards the end of the month to allow employees to indicate what they've read and get entered into the prize drawing. While you are only required to read at least one book to earn an entry, you are welcome to read as much as you'd like and let us know which books you loved! We can share everyone's favorites at the end of the month when we announce the winners, but participants will not be required to specify which book/s they read if they are not comfortable sharing.

When picking out a new book, don't forget about Jefferson College's amazing library! Check out the links provided below for a list of the library's new books and bestsellers, resources for downloading ebooks and audio books, and a list of self-care options available.
