PHOTOS: Carney Students Celebrate Summer Reading With The Ravens
Students who completed the Baltimore County Public Library's Summer Reading Program were treated to a visit from Ravens mascot Poe Friday afternoon.
After the Ravens defeated the Cleveland Browns in a Thursday night home game, students at Carney Elementary School got a special visit from a team representative.
The team mascot, Poe, stopped by the school Friday afternoon to reward 92 students who completed the Baltimore County Public Library's Summer Reading Program, according to an email from school principal Stacey Durkovich.
The celebration included individual photos with the mascots for students, crafts, food and prizes.
