NYGPS LAST MEETING OF THE YEAR-SEPTEMBER 19, 2013 WITH MR. PETER MAGOWAN

MAGOWAN

The last meeting of the year will take place on September 19 at 6:30pm at the Bergino Baseball Clubhouse . Thanks Jay Goldberg once again!! The Giants (What happened!!) will be in town that week playing both the Mets and the Yankees. Our guest speaker will be NYGPS Member and current Giants executive Mr. Peter Magowan. Mr. Magowan is the major reason why the present day club still honors its glorious roots in NY. AT&T Park, his showcase while he was the chief managing partner of the team, spotlights many of the great moments, players, teams, and events that happened well over 55 years ago, 3,000 miles away. Mr. Magowan continues his passion and love for the history of the team to this day. Last year at NY Giants Night at At&T Park, he gave a tremendous speech concerning the team’s legacy and also paid compliments to our organization. Here is the video for those who haven’t seen it.

Mr. Magowan will be accompanied by Robert Garratt who wrote a terrific expose on Horace Stoneham. Mr. Garratt will share his thoughts on Stoneham’s tenure as owner. Much to the chagrin of many, Stoneham did many wonderful things for the baseball world writes Garratt.

This will be a tremendous evening!! You need to RSVP ASAP. Space is limited!! When you RSVP, please send it on a separate email to GIANTSGURU@GMAIL.COM so that everybody doesn’t continue to get this email and your email thus get cluttered with unwanted mail.

Thanks to many of you for your continued support. Please try to RSVP regardless of you coming or not.-Gary
