Stick to Reading=Succeeding” features the All-Star Reading Challenge, an incentive program in which students receive prizes for reading books.

The program is free for schools and their students, who will receive a registration form to keep track of their books. The following prizes correspond with the number of books read:
- After reading five books, students receive a Predators/Lochinvar bookmark and ruler
- After reading 10 books, students receive a Predators/Lochinvar jersey drawstring backpack
- After reading 15 books, students receive a Predators poster/certificate, two (2) tickets to a Predators game and students' names will be posted on the Predators' official Web site.
