Assembly Minority Leader Will Barclay (R,C-Pulaski) was recently joined by students who successfully completed his annual New York State Assembly Summer Reading Challenge for a celebration and award presentation at the Oswego Public Library. All participants were awarded an official New York State Assembly Excellence in Reading certificate. 

Students were tasked with reading for at least 15 minutes a day for 40 days during the summer months and completing a corresponding calendar to keep track of progress. The challenge was intended to encourage reading during the non-school months to keep minds active and engaged with books.
