Wagons and Wheels aims to relieve stress for hospitalized children

A trip to the hospital can create anxiety for anyone, but children at Hays Medical Center can drive the stress away by wheeling through the hallways.

The Wonder Women League, an affiliate of the United Way of Ellis County, joined Wednesday afternoon with HaysMed and several businesses to officially introduce the Wagons and Wheels Project.

The Hays Chamber of Commerce ribbon cutting in the hospital gave the public a look at the red wagons and motorized vehicles that children will be able to ride during their stay at the hospital.
