Terrier Tales
During the Summer, Lenny Mathis, Assistant Athletic Director for Marketing & Promotions , at Wofford College came to me with an idea. He asked, "Why don't we start a reading program for children that would encourage the child to earn a free ticket to a Wofford football game by reading books?" And so it began.With two weeks to go, we have 185 children participating in the program.
The football game between Wofford and Chattanooga will begin at 1:30 p.m at Gibbs Stadium. Children must take their completed bookmarks to the scoreboard ticket booth (at the American flag) and show the bookmark. Parents/family members can purchase discount general admission tickets for $5.00. Click on the graphic for more information.
Thanks to Lenny and Wofford College for this creative idea.

Another good reason why we should link to your blog from Infodepot. This is a great way to promote special events!
Thank you very much for this idea, Todd. It sounds like a win-win situation for everyone concerned. Here at our Carvers Bay Branch Library in Georgetown County, we have given away Ipods, and that has gone over really well in encouraging registration for our interactive (XBox) teen gaming club. By the way, I am enjoying your blog.
