Delran Firefighters, Families Mingle With Philadelphia Eagles

DELRAN, NJ — Members of the Delran Fire Department were among 40 local first responders who participated in a flag football game put together by the Philadelphia Eagles and BELFOR Property Restoration on Monday, Dec. 23.

The organizations put together the game at the NovaCare Complex to express their gratitude for first responders this holiday season.

“It is always a privilege and honor to celebrate our dedicated first responders who bravely protect our communities every day,” BELFOR CEO Sheldon Yellen said. “The BELFOR team is delighted to partner with the Philadelphia Eagles in recognizing these courageous men and women, and their families, during the holiday season for their incredible sacrifices throughout the year. Not all heroes wear capes — but they do wear flags!”

The teams were coached by Eagles players. Swoop and the Eagles cheerleaders were in attendance to mingle with the first responders and their families.

In addition to the Delran Fire Department, other first responders who played in the game came from the Mount Laurel Fire Department, Westampton Township Emergency Services and Riverside Fire Company #1. Below are photos from the game, provided by BELFOR.
