The Hokies will hold their inaugural “White Out” for their home opener in an effort to promote reading throughout the Commonwealth. “White Out” t-shirts will go on sale for $6 each on Saturday, April 19 - the day of the annual Spring Game - at the University Bookstores. Proceeds from the sale of the “White Out” shirts will go to Herma’s Readers, a non-profit organization that promotes the power of reading and literacy to youngsters during their formative years, grades K-3.
