MVP Health Care: KidPower at School with the River Rats Program will visit area schools, libraries and community centers. The KidPower assembly program is designed to teach school age children the importance of making healthy lifestyle choices and keeping active through sports. The KidPower Program will feature appearances by team mascot “Rowdy” The Rat, River Rat players and MVP Health Care Mascot, Appleby. Children who participate in the assembly program or greet the team at any of their area appearances are invited to create Appleby/Rowdy artwork to be displayed at the Times Union Center during the season.

Reading with Rowdy is an interactive program designed to emphasize the importance of reading to students in grades K through 5. Each session involves two segments: Story Time and Craft Time. The River Rats’ team mascot Rowdy inserts an element of fun to the learning environment in order to show children the enjoyment and excitement of reading. As an incentive for students, those individuals who complete the program receive an award.
The Reading with Rowdy program is simple and surely benefits those individuals involved. Participating children read ten books throughout the duration of the course, and their parents or a staff member from the participating location track students’ progress on a special Reading with Rowdy form. Upon the program's conclusion, each child receives a Certificate of Completion and a complimentary child’s ticket to an exciting Albany River Rats game!
