1. The challenge was developed in 2020 as an effort to promote reading among students in grades K-12 in order to enhance their learning experience during the fall semester. The program is open to all students grades K-12, whether they attend public school, private school or are homeschooled. New to the 2021 program is the addition of allowing ages 0-5 to participate. This can be done by having the parents read to the children and filling out the log in place of them.
2. To begin the program, students will fill out a reading log, to be approved by a parent or guardian, the reading logs will then be turned in for various rewards. Each reading level requires the student and parent/guardian to log 5 hours of reading time.
3. Each reading level that is achieved offers a unique prize from one of the participating sponsors. 
4. The logs are to be completed sequentially.

1. Students can pick up the Star Level 1 reading log from their school or from any of our restaurants or download and print the form from our website (www.serggroup.com/star-readers-challenge). When they have logged 5 hours of reading time, they will be eligible to turn in the Star 1 Reading Log at Coastal Provisions Co at 38 Shelter Cove Lane, Unit 122, Hilton Head, SC 29928. When turned in, Coastal Provisions will provide the student/ parent with their stamp card with the first stamp, the second reading log and their 1st prize, a Star Readers Challenge t-shirt. 
2. The student will then be able to take that stamp book and their 2nd completed log to the next location to get their next to stamp and prize. 
3. The student will keep the stamp book to track rewards as they are issued.
4. At each Star Level, there is a different reward. The location of each reward will stamp those squares and will be
