Ohio 529 CollegeAdvantage proudly supports many statewide outreach programs to encourage young, bright minds to see all of life’s educational possibilities.
We are pleased to join the Toledo Mud Hens and Toledo Lucas County Library to support the Home Run Readers to help students and their families in their efforts to prevent summer slide while school is out. For participating young readers 12 and under, they can also receive fun prizes from the Mud Hens.
Register for the Home Run Readers with the Mud Hens first. Once enrolled, stop by the Summer Reading Station when you visit one of the Toledo Lucas County Library branches to show them your enrollment message. The library staff will then provide you the Home Run Readers pamphlet, which contains more details about the program.
Your child needs to read at least five books over the summer. The program ends Aug. 3. Once done, your completed pamphlet can be redeemed for two tickets. Participants can also enter to win a grand prize of a $2,500 college savings award to add to or open an Ohio Direct 529 account from Ohio 529 CollegeAdvantage.
