The Reno Aces held their first Education Day of the season for more than 2,500 students from several different school districts.
Kids got to learn about multiple professions in the community, then watch a throwback Thursday game right after.
As a Reno Aces partner and participant in Education Day, 2 News Nevada gave several students the opportunity to test out their reporting skills, challenging a few to walk around the stadium looking for people to interview.
One teacher, Hap Bradley, says this field trip is a great opportunity to learn and have fun.
"I think it's great because it's an experience that all the kids can have with their national past time and have fun in an informal environment," he said.
Some of the students tell us what they've learned from Education Day.
Kayla Wohlers, a senior at South Lake Tahoe High School says, "I've learned a lot about different career paths, different fields, a lot of different information, and a lot of fun facts."
Zoe Brown, another South Tahoe High School Senior says, "I learned a lot about how they film this whole game, how they zoom in and out, how they pan from the game to people in the crowd."
And as far as reporting, a couple of kids share what they thought about the job.
Landon Petroff, student at Verdi Elementary School, says, "It's like really cool, I feel like I'm really famous. I feel like I'm freedom."
Michele Chandler, who also attends the same elementary school says, "I learned that to be a reporter you have to be kind, and just ask questions, and be confident."
The next Reno Aces Education Day is May 6th, with activities starting at 9 a.m. and first pitch starting at 11. To learn more, you can click here.
