CONWAY — Tom Brady has appeared in nine Super Bowls for the New England Patriots, winning six of them. He’s been the NFL’s Most Valuable Player three times. On Thursday, he’ll get to do something he’s never done before — meet Camden Bailey.
Camden, 15, the son of Jen and Chris Bailey of Jackson, will spend the day with Brady in Foxboro, Mass., and attend the Patriots’ final preseason game with the New York Giants at 7 p.m. as he gets his wish granted by the New Hampshire chapter of the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
