Topps, Baseball Hall of Fame Give to Play Ball
Kids who attend a special Kids Club event at CityCenter of CityNorth on June 17 will be treated to free baseball cards and a special magazine about the history of baseball cards donated by two of the biggest names in the game, Topps and the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
Topps, the official baseball card manufacturer of Major League Baseball, donated packs of its Topps Attax baseball card game, and the Hall of Fame gave copies of its member magazine, “Memories and Dreams,” dedicated to the history of baseball cards.
Play Ball project leader Robert Johnson will lead a one-hour fun-filled session on baseball cards with kids who attend the free event. Kids will learn about the history of baseball cards, make their own team pennant, have a bubble gum blowing contest, and learn how to flip baseball cards.
Parents can also bring their cameras to get a snapshot of their kids as they “appear” in their own baseball card.
The event will be held Thursday, June 17 from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. in the Fountain Court across from Mojo Yogurt at 4 p.m. at CityCenter of CityNorth, 5515 E. Deer Valley Drive, in Phoenix.
