The Reading Marathon has officially come to an end! If you successfully completed the marathon please continue reading the instructions below and submit your child's minutes to receive/print out their Adventure Passes. If you missed this year's Reading Marathon please come back to this page in late-October 2025 for instructions on how to join the next one.

Congratulations! You PAWS’d to READ with PBS Utah!  

It’s time to enter your Reading Marathon minutes for November to receive your 2025 PBS KIDS Utah Adventure Pass! The submission form is open until midnight on December 31, 2024.  

IMPORTANT: Please fill out separate submission forms for each child (grades preschool – grade 6) who reached the goal and read 600 minutes during the Reading Marathon.  

You will receive an email for each individual with the pass that you must then download, save, and print. Bookmark this email and keep a copy of the pass for your records. Keep the Adventure Pass together and with you when adventuring. Please note: because of the volume of Adventure Pass recipients, we will not be able to maintain and distribute Adventure Passes once they are initially delivered.

How the Adventure Pass Works

• The Adventure Pass includes tickets and coupons to your favorite museums, zoos, and activities around town.*
• The Adventure Pass is valid for 2025. Each coupon is valid for specific months based on the location.  
• To earn a 2025 Adventure Pass, each child must read (or be read to) for 600 minutes in the November 2024 PBS Utah Reading Marathon. Adventure Passes are valid for children between preschool – 6th grade.
• Adults and other family members who do not have an Adventure Pass will pay regular admission prices unless otherwise noted.
• The Adventure Pass can only be used one time at each location unless otherwise noted.
