Do you want to win a FREE ticket to a 2015 Sea Dogs' game?  
It's easy!
Participate in Slugger’s reading challenge.  First, read five books above and beyond any school required reading.  Next, fill out the Reading Challenge form, and have a parent or teacher sign the form.  Finally, mail it in by April 1st.  That's it!   And...You just may see Slugger roaming the halls this week!  Yes, he'll be making a guest appearance.  
Challenge forms can be found in the Library, the main office, or ask your Language Arts teacher.  
As an added incentive for schools, the Portland Sea Dogs will make a cash donation to the top three schools with the highest percentage of students who complete the challenge.  Come on, we can do that!  Come down to the library and pick out your first of five books!
