ABOUT THE 'READING POWER PLAY'
The Amerks will kick off the 2009-10 program on Wednesday, October 7th and begin their first of 23 reading appearances. The “Reading Power Play” involves players stopping by local libraries, reading to kids and giving a hockey demonstration. Each appearance also features a raffle for Amerk memorabilia and an autograph session by the visiting player and The Moose.

At each event, the Amerks will distribute ticket vouchers and activity books to each youth in attendance good for one complimentary ticket for any Amerks home game from November 20th to February 20th. The vouchers and books are courtesy of The College at Brockport.

During the past four seasons, Amerk players and their mascot, The Moose, have made over 100 appearances and accounted for over 17,000 books being read by kids from kindergarten and all the way through high school.

The second half of “Reading Power Play” enters kids into a grand prize drawing. Using a hat trick as a thematic vehicle, youth participants fill out a form for every three books they read, which then qualifies them for an entry into the grand prize drawing. The two winners will receive grand prize packages that include dinner, suite tickets and the opportunity to make the ceremonial puck drop at the Amerks’ Saturday, February 13th home game against the Lake Erie Monsters.

The “Reading Power Play” runs from Wednesday, October 7th to Wednesday, January 13th. A complete reading program schedule will be available at the Amerks Guest Services Booth in the upper atrium lobby on game nights and online at amerks.com.
