Casey Cardinia Libraries’ favourite furry friend Sid the Sloth is back to promote the libraries’ annual junior membership drive.

Kids who sign up for a free membership at any of the five Casey Cardinia Libraries branches between now and the end of May and get their Sid the Sloth bookmark stamped three times can go into the draw to win a Toymate voucher valued at $300.

What’s more, all new members can also go into the draw to win a $100 Toymate voucher, with one winner chosen per month in March, April and May, by random draw.

New library members under the age of 18 can enter the competition online up until Friday 31 May, with the lucky winner of the $300 voucher announced in June.

Casey Cardinia Libraries chief executive Beth Luppino said she hopes the competition will inspire the next generation of active library users.

“We want every child in Casey to access our free books, events and services. Learning is lifelong,” she said.

“Every new member that joins between now and May 31 get a library membership and the chance to win Toymate Vouchers, the major prize is a $300 Toymate Voucher.”

To sign up to the library, head into your local library in Hampton Park, Endeavour Hills, Doveton, Cranbourne or Bunjil Place in Narre Warren.
