TV, Radio and Octrolleyfest!
If you have Comcast OnDemand check out last night's show -Daily News Live. (10/9)
If you fast forward to the 36st minute right after commercial break you will see a plug from Mike Barkan on OcTrolleyFest and the Autograph session we are having on 10/20 on the porch of Sovereign Bank formally 3rd base in Hilldale Park.
I am also tentatively scheduled to be on Glen Macnow's show Saturday between 2-3pm on WIP to go over what we are trying to accomplish with the 100th anniversary of Hilldale (10/19/2010) and fixing Biz Mackey's plaque in Cooperstown to have the team name corrected from Philadelphia Hilldales to Darby Hilldales.
It's almost here
