Dale's Flyin' with the Jets!

GINNY ECKERT

It was a very memorable day for our pal Dale Eckert when he got to meet some of his favourite players from the Winnipeg Jets.

His mom Ginny told Scribbles all about it.

"The Rehab Centre for Children here in Winnipeg invited the Jets Hockey Club to come and visit with some of the children that attend the clinics there." explained Dale's excited mom Ginny.

"Dale was invited by Pamela the O.T. Specialist to attend. Dale is a HUGE hockey fan and this was a dream come true for him." said Ginny.

"All the tickets to our Jets games are sold out for the next couple of years and limited handicapped seating, keeps this hardcore fan from the real ice."

"The players were all very warm and friendly. Each gave Dale an autographed picture of themselves and spent time with him. The Club gave each of the kids a toque and a very cool book called the HOME team."

"It was a wonderful time for Dale, Michele and myself. It is awesome to see the Players give back to the community that supports them so enthusiastically." concluded Ginny.

WOW! That IS very exciting indeed Ginny and judging by Dale's reaction, he surely was thrilled to meet his hockey idols (and seeing the good looking guys on the team, I'd be excited too, just maybe for different reasons...heehee)
