Read With The Remix

Read With The Remix is a reading program that challenges students to read for 20 minutes a day for 5 days during one week. Any type of reading counts—books, audiobooks, comics, read-alouds, graphic novels, or anything else they enjoy.

Students who complete the challenge (or give it their best effort) will earn ONE FREE child ticket to a Rip City Remix home game during the 2025-26 season.

This is an easy way to celebrate reading, encourage literacy and enjoy a fun time at the Rip City Remix game!
