Too
often the public hears about the negative elements connected to sports, either
the athletes themselves committing crimes or the teams/management screwing over
the players and fans. The public rarely hears about the positive decisions that
are made daily.
Each
year the Boston Bruins make a trip to Boston’s Children’s Hospital to visit
kids and bring a little cheer to their lives. People may not realize but events
like this brighten the day of the children as well as their parents. To add
some cheer the Bruins players dressed up as characters from Disney’s Frozen, though quite peculiar versions of the characters. They even sung "Let It Go" at times.
I
know what these families are going through, when my son was young he spent weeks
at a time in Mary Bridge Children’s Hospital in Tacoma and when he was 7 months
old the Seattle Seahawks cheerleaders came to visit for Halloween. It is these
types of visits that help families, some may even say it is therapeutic, at
least to ease the mind.
The
players; Kevin Miller (Kristoff), Dougie Hamilton (Elsa), Matt Fraser (Anna),
Seth Griffith (Hans), Matt Bartkowski (Sven) and Torrey Krug (Olaf)
