Athletics and Miracle Flights teamed up to launch a “Lights for Flights” event in Downtown Summerlin, lighting seven large holiday signs in the team’s green and gold. The signs were designed to spotlight Miracle Flights’ mission of offering free commercial flights for families whose children require specialized medical care outside their home area.
At the event, the team’s mascot, Stomper the elephant made a special appearance and organizers hosted a family holiday treasure hunt for the first 125 families who signed up.
Representatives said as the Athletics settle into Las Vegas, they want to serve as a lasting source of support for children, families, and community nonprofits, helping ensure that distance doesn’t block access to critical medical care.
