Thanks to the Sudbury Wolves and Grand & Toy, more than 500 children receiving care at the Sudbury Regional Hospital (HRSRH), have had their spirits raised with tickets to Wolves home games.

"We'd like to thank Grand & Toy for partnering with us on this special campaign," said Blaine Smith, Sudbury Wolves president. "We hope the campaign has had its intended effect, which is simply to help make sick kids feel better."

Patients in the Pediatric Unit, Pediatric Oncology Unit of the Regional Cancer Program, and clients at the Children's Treatment Centre have all received tickets during the campaign, which also featured visits from players and Sudbury Wolves' mascot Howler.

The HRSRH thanks the Sudbury Wolves and Grand & Toy for their generosity and anticipates the return of the Feel Better campaign during the Wolves' 2009/2010 season.

The Sudbury Wolves and HRSRH wish to remind patients who may still hold tickets that the final Wolves regular season home games will take place Feb. 27 and March 13. Dates, times and opponents can be found at www.sudburywolves.com .
