PASSING APBA DOWN FROM ONE GENERATION TO THE NEXT.
A note to thank you for all you do to keep APBA rolling along in an increasingly challenging environment for board games. We love the newsletters. Two years ago I resurrected my ancient APBA baseball gear and gave it to my 8 year old son, Dylan. And just as I did 40 years ago, became obsessed instantly. I started buying seasons for him and it deepened his love and passion for APBA and the sport. Fast forward and he is now 10. What's he up to now? He is making cards for the Lancaster Barnstormers and other teams of the Independent League. He can't understand why APBA doesn't have cards for the Independent League:-)) Now the focus for Dylan is not Santa, Christmas but it is on a countdown to January 13th. It harkens me back to the days when I was 10 and doing the same exact thing. Back when Mom had to drive me to the APBA on Millersville Pike in Lancaster to get in line with my $30 for the new cards. So, if you are wondering how important the game is and what it's value is to the general public this is a great example. Be proud and thank you again for keeping the above tradition alive. I will attach photos of Dylan's.
Here is Dylan.
