Ozzie's
Reading Club is an eight-week
reading incentive program sponsored
by the Kane County Cougars along
with
Provena Mercy Medical Center,
the
College Illinois! 529 Prepaid
Tuition Program and
Grizzly Jack's
Grand Bear Resort. The program is open
to children in grades K-8; however,
to participate, a student's school
must be a member of the Ozzie’s
Reading Club program.
Ozzie’s Reading Club tracks the
progress of a student’s reading
around the bases of a baseball
diamond with the three bases and
home plate representing two weeks
worth of reading. Each teacher may
determine his or her own reading
requirements for each base. Students
completing the program’s
requirements “hit a home run” and
earn a free ticket to an April or
May Cougars game designated by their
school. Other rewards may include a
bookmark, a voucher for a hot dog
and soda as well as an official
Ozzie Reading Club t-shirt.

Reading Club may contact Amy Mason
