New York Giants Preservation Society meeting (New York, NY)
We are proud to announce that the first New York Giants Preservation Society meeting will take place at 6:30 PM on Thursday, October 25, at the Bergino Baseball Clubhouse, located at the landmark Cast Iron Building, 67 East 11th Street, in downtown Manhattan.
Our inaugural speaker will be esteemed author Joshua Prager. Josh is a prolific writer who is in the final stages of having his new book published, one which talks about his life. Because the meeting takes place in October, Josh will be discussing this and his incredible story about the 1951 Giants, entitled THE ECHOING GREEN, The Untold Story of Bobby Thomson, Ralph Branca and the Shot Heard Round the World. This is truly an unbelievable story that still generates debates, six years after the initial pressing of the book. We are honored that Josh is taking the time out of his busy schedule to join us. Bring your book down and have it signed if you like! Donuts will be served.
We would like to thank Bergino’s CEO/owner [and SABR member] Jay Goldberg for letting us use his beautiful facility. Jay has some wonderful memorabilia to view and purchase. Jay will also be doing a podcast of the event. This is an event any New York Giants fan or baseball fan should attend.
Please RSVP to giantsguru@gmail.com as soon as you can so we have an idea of how many people might be attending. Seating is on a first-come, first-serve basis. Feel free to come early to browse the Clubhouse and chat with fellow NYGPS members.
