Weekly Challenge: 📚 Treat Yo Shelve

November is Member Appreciation Month 2025! This month, we’re featuring FOUR CHALLENGES created by your fellow scouts. This week’s challenge was created with Heather Hoyt. Heather challenges you to visit a new-to-you library and “treat yo shelve” to something new!

Details:

1) Travel to a library that is not the typical one you visit. (In other words, the library you visit should be new-to-you.)

2) Treat yo shelve to something new through competing one or more of the following activities while at the library.

  • Grab a magazine and sit by a window or fireplace to read it

  • Check out a new-genre-to-you book

  • Take a friend with you and check out and play a board game (Maybe even to fulfill a games objective!)

  • Use one of their online databases to research a topic for a Quest Scouts badge. For instance, find the oldest building in your town, or a business that opened in the 1940s!

  • Attend a program the library offers (They are always free!)

  • If they have a Friends of the Library store, purchase something to support them

  • Another library related activity of your choice. The possibilities are endless! Now get out there and Treat Yo Shelve!

3) Take a photo of yourself completing the activity you chose and share it on our Facebook Page as a comment on the post “📚 Treat Yo Shelve.”

4) Along with your comment, please also tell us:

  • What library did you visit?

  • Why did you choose this library?

  • How was the library similar or different than you usual library?

  • Which activity did you choose?

  • Did you have a good time?
