The Sharks reading program is designed to give teachers a tool – Sharks tickets – they can use to reward students who accomplish their reading goals.

Individual teachers determine the reading goals for their students and the time frame of the program. The Sharks will provide a pair of tickets to each student who accomplishes their goals as determined by the teacher. The tickets can be used for either of two Read Around the Bases Nights – Wednesday, June 7 or Monday, June 12.

Participation in Read Around the Bases is open to all elementary and middle schools within the Cape Fear Region. To participate, teachers and school leaders may contact Sharks Director of Community Relations, Tom Lamont at [email protected].

To help support Read Around the Bases, Sharky will be making school appearances plus the Sharks office staff will be joining Sharky and reading to student.

All students and schools who participate receive complimentary Sharks bookmarks.
