Post by Smuah Gunnery »

Event Name: Park Ridge Advocate Children’s Hospital Visit #1
Date: Wednesday, January 18, 2017
Venue: Advocate Children’s Hospital Park Ridge
Address: 1675 Dempster St, Park Ridge, IL 60068

The MWG paid a visit to Advocate Children's Hospital in Park Ridge to spread the love of Star Wars and put smiles on the children's faces (big and small).
Needless to say, we were a hit with the patients and the staff. We also paid a special visit to Jesus, that the MWG met in one of the Garrison's visits last year. The special project that was headed up by Rex Fett was presented to Jesus after making the rounds in the PICU and wards. He was super excited to finally receive his TIE Pilot Costume and special wings for his permanent wheelchair.
