RIF SUMMER CAMP 2025

Welcome to RIF’s Summer Reading Camp!

The summer months are a critical time for families to support their children’s reading engagement and ensure they don’t experience the unfortunate ‘summer slide’ where students lose months of learning when out of school. Keep your children reading and active all summer long with Reading Is Fundamental’s (RIF) Summer Reading Camp. This FREE, annual summer reading program empowers families with fun, ready-to-use book lists and related activities to help their children be inspired to read by making reading a part of everyday summer fun.
