Every local event the organization puts on is referred to as a “snowflake event.” The idea is that over the course of many events, the Snowball Express creates a snowball from all of the snowflakes.
On Tuesday, the Kansas City Chiefs training camp practice in St. Joseph, Mo. served as a snowflake event for more than 10 families in connection with the Snowball Express organization.
"The Kansas City Chiefs put on an incredible event to where the kids had activities,” Fred Galvin, a retired member of the Marine Corps and a Snowball Express coordinator, said.
