Dick’s Sporting Goods is launching a new content and production studio, Cookie Jar & A Dream, to connect more closely with customers through an unscripted sports-themed series. The studio will follow the retailer, Hollywood production partners, and filmmakers as they tell stories through the lens of sport, starting in 2014.

Cookie Jar & A Dream Studios derives its name from the origins of the DICK's brand itself. Dick Stack, founder of the sporting goods chain, started with a $300 loan from his grandmother in the 1940s when he was only 18. This loan came from Stack's grandmother's savings, stored safely in her cookie jar.

The content and production studio plans to produce unscripted sports-related content and builds on previous sports content Dick’s has been involved in producing.
