The folks over at North Wildwood Recreation and Tourism have shared a post to Facebook alerting residents and all those from the surrounding areas that they're invited to come take in the parade. It's set to kick off around 5 p.m. tonight near 1st and New York Avenue in North Wildwood. It's a pep-rally on wheels!

All fans are invited to come decked out in your Flyers' best and hang out with the Fly Guys' In-Arena Host, Andrea Helfrich, along with some Flyers Alumni and the Flyers Ice Team. You don't even have to ask - it's already been guaranteed; of course, Gritty will be there, too! This is just the first stop of the summer for the caravan as they've announced even more dates at various locations in Flyers territory throughout the summer.
