NY Giants Head Coach, Players To Headline Local Fundraiser

A group of New York Giants will be in Wyckoff next month to rally for a fellow NFL player battling brain cancer.

Tom Coughlin, Head Coach of the NY Giants and Big Blue players Mark Herzlich and Chris Snee will be at the Wyckoff Family YMCA on Wednesday, June 5.

The three will be part of a VIP “Meet and Greet,” happening from 5:30-6:45 p.m. Proceeds from the event will benefit Frank Chamberlin and his family. Frank is a Mahwah High School graduate, Wyckoff resident, and former NFL player who was diagnosed with an anaplastic astrocytoma, a rare form of brain cancer, last year. 

According to the release from the Y, the Meet and Greet will feature an "intimate reception," and photo ops with Tom, Mark, Chris, and other NY Giants players. Tickets are $200 per person, with very limited availability.

At 7 p.m., the coach and players will present “Life Lessons in Sports,” a talk and Q&A panel session.  The event, which will be hosted by WFAN and Giants Radio Network announcer Paul Dottino, will be open to a larger audience. Tickets for this event are $25 per person.
