So the Icedogs get to go to local schools and read to kids or whatever the teacher needs them to do. They usually do this right after practice. Since Jared still has a couple of classes at the high school, he never gets to do this as he always has to go back to class. I had him come to the kindergarten class that I work in. Here is talking about having good grades and to stay in school.
He brought Carson's old hockey gear with him, and he dresses one of the boys in the class in the gear.

Next it is one of the girls....after all girls play hockey too!

Her smile tells it all!

Finally he handed out a autographed pictures of himself that I printed up.

Group shot! They loved having him. It was good community service for Jared, along with practicing those speaking 'in public' skills. Plus, I got to show off one of my kids for a few minutes!
