What’s in it for me through Wyoming Public Library?

The library will serve as a home base for all those who participate in the program.  An area in the library only available to participants will be set up to track weekly progress, weigh in, and connect you with other participants/teams. The library will organize and host events and activities throughout the 100 days starting with a Kick Off event on January 22.  That evening you will be able to connect with other participants, share ideas of what you would like to get out of the next 100 days, and receive the 100 day calendar of events.
