Everyone’s favorite mascot, FINZ, is celebrating his first birthday today. FINZ was born on March 26, 2006 and has been seen everywhere in the City of Worcester as well as all over the Central Mass. region since.

The loveable Sharks mascot has made thousands of appearances this year and plans to lay low today. He has one Reading is Cool appearance in the morning and then hopes to just take it easy for the rest of the day.

For his birthday, FINZ asked for a new hockey stick and new shoes. If you see FINZ today, wish him a big Happy Birthday!!
