Phantoms In The Community:

The Lehigh Valley Phantoms and Phantoms Charities held their first Phantoms Fit program of the year at Nitschmann Middle School today as Kurtis Gabriel, Alex Lyon and Kyle Criscuolo helped deliver floor hockey equipment that we are donating to the school and showed the kids some drills and games they can play with their new hockey equipment. Tomorrow Reece Willcox, Connor Bunnaman and Gerry Fitzgerald will be bringing equipment to Salisbury Middle School for another Phantoms Fit program.
