Grand Prize Winner Erika Imhoff

The Hawaii State Public Library System is thrilled to announce the winner of its 2020 Summer Reading Program Grand Prize Drawing! Erika Imhoff from the Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library won four Alaska Airlines® roundtrip tickets to anywhere Alaska Airlines® flies.

HSPLS’ popular Summer Reading Program moved to a virtual format to accommodate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. With the theme “Imagine Your Story,” HSPLS offered an array of fun online activities, craft times, storytimes, book discussions and author talks through our website, librarieshawaii.org. 7,262 patrons of all ages registered in the 11-week reading program, and 72% of these registrants actively participated and read a total of 8,399,140 minutes! This program was sponsored by the Friends of the Library of Hawaii and their Summer Reading partners.

State Librarian Stacey Aldrich congratulated Erika Imhoff on winning the Grand Prize during a video conference call, which included Nainoa Mau, Executive Director of the Friends of the Library of Hawaii and Daniel Chun, Regional Manager of Sales and Community Marketing for Alaska Airlines.

“We are delighted to share this happy news with Erika and wish her and her family safe travels in the near future! We encourage readers of all ages to keep reading and visiting your favorite library all year round!” said State Librarian Stacey A. Aldrich.

“We wish Erika Imhoff and her family happy travels and a Mahalo Nui to Alaska Airlines® for their generosity and support of literacy among Hawaii’s keiki, teens, adults and kupuna through our public libraries,” said Nainoa Mau, Executive Director of the Friends of the Library of Hawai‘i.
