CBS4 and Your Quad City Mallards are teaming up to stimulate interest in reading
among local elementary school students with the
HAT TRICK FOR READING PROGRAM
Program Description
Each student in your class will be given a Mallards bookmark to help promote the program, encourage participation and track their progress toward scoring a reading "hat trick." In the sport of hockey, scoring three goals in one game is considered a hat trick. When your student reads three books, they will have earned their way to a Mallards game! Students who reach the achievement will receive a complimentary Mallards ticket voucher (youth ticket value of $15), good for either Saturday, December 17 or Friday, March 16 depending on whether a teacher participates in the fall or spring. It will be up to the individual teacher to determine appropriate reading material and provide verification books have been read. Upon completion of the program, a list of achieving students will be provided to the Mallards. The Mallards are proud to offer Quad City area students the opportunity to attend a game at no cost in reward for their hard work in the classroom.

- Mallards bookmarks for each student
