Thirteen-year old Maddie Shaw of Binghamton, New York was invited to the Ponies game on Tuesday, May 15 to yell "Play Ball" on the field to start the game.
However, she was surprised with the news that her wish was granted to travel to the Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts Punta Cana resort in the Dominican Republic!
Shaw has been battling Ewing's Sarcoma, a form of cancer that grows in bone or soft tissue.
Her mother, Amy Shaw, says Maddie was ecstatic to receive her wish.
"It was amazing and very emotional. She was completely surprised and crying happy tears. It's been a long journey for her," said Shaw.
The 5-star resort features a water park, open air theater, and Nickelodeon Characters.
This is the latest wish granted by the Make-A-Wish Central New York Organization.
Hope you have a amazing time at Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts Punta Cana, Maddie! :)
