The Evansville Thunderbolts will be signing Braxton Wiley to an official Thunderbolts contract at 10AM on Friday morning. Braxton is a 7 year old boy who has endured over 8 brain surgeries and has dreamed of being a professional hockey player. The day will begin with Braxton signing the contract alongside Coach Ian Moran and the rest of the Evansville Thunderbolts team. He will then follow the team for the official team photo and finally pre-game practice. He will then return to Ford Center for the Thunderbolts game to drop the puck at 7:15PM and cheer his team on to victory.
We welcome the press to be a part of this wonderful ceremony honoring an amazing and brave child. For additional information, please contact Alison Nicholson, Thunderbolts Public Relations Manager at anicholson@evansvillethunderbolts.com.
