Gritty and Philadelphia Flyers Caravan to Visit Ocean City

  • News
Gritty and Philadelphia Flyers personalities will greet fans with giveaways as the 2021 Flyers Community Caravan rolls through Ocean City starting at 5 p.m. Tuesday. This year’s event in Ocean City will be the first to visit the Boardwalk since its inception in 2016. The Community Caravan will follow last season’s mobile pep rally-style format throughout the summer-long event series deemed the team’s “Road to October.” The Caravan will start on Asbury Avenue at Sixth Street and travel the length of Ocean City’s downtown to 14th Street. From there, the route moves up to the Boardwalk and will continue from 14th Street to 5th Street. The Community Caravan will once again feature the Flyers own in-arena host Andrea Helfrich, Flyers alumni, the Flyers Ice Team and fan favorite Gritty. Fans attending this summer’s Caravan events will have the chance to get their hands on a lineup of exclusive Flyers-themed giveaways, including bucket hats, flip-flops, sunglass straps, tank tops, beach towels and more.
