One of the Chicago Wolves most successful community endeavors is the READ TO SUCCEED program, presented by Vista Health System and Pace, which involves more than 500,000 children and 105 libraries in the Chicagoland area. The goal of this program is for children to spend more time in libraries so that they see the valuable resources they have to offer, and understand the benefits of reading as a recreational tool.
The Chicago Wolves "Read To Succeed" community initiative has been a very successful library-based program since 1996, encouraging nearly 500,000 students to make reading a fun and rewarding part of life. Beginning next year, we are pleased to announce its inaugural school program, and we hope you will participate.
The Chicago Wolves invite local high school and college journalists and photographers to experience a game as a member of the media. The students' skills will expand as they are granted full media credentials and the assistance of the Wolves media relations department to write and photograph a game for their school newspaper. Students will be able to watch the game from the press box and will have the opportunity to take part in a post-game interview with Wolves Head Coach Don Lever.
The Chicago Wolves announced Batavia High School senior Joey Yurisich as the winner of the team’s Tim Breslin Memorial Scholarship at their game at the Allstate Arena on Sun., March 28, 2010.
