Philadelphia Flyers wives visit Virtua Voorhees

Philadelphia Flyers wives recently visited the Pediatrics unit and Pediatric Emergency Department at Virtua Voorhees, handing out hats and posters to young fans excited about the team’s playoff hopes.
The hats were collected during the team’s “Hat Tricks for Kids Hat Toss,” where fans tossed their new hats onto the ice “hat trick style” to show support for kids battling illnesses.
After distributing the hats, the Wives group visited with Virtua staff, giving away T-shirts and cheer cards to lift the playoff spirit.
