Using Sports and Rock and Roll to Rebuild a Cultural Icon

Friends of Reverchon Park Update – Gerry Mecca

 

The Friends of Reverchon Park, a Dallas organization whose mission is to preserve the park and restore a local baseball field to its original glory, was the benefactor for a recent sandlot tilt featuring A-list celebrities to help their cause. Local artist, entrepreneur and baseball legend Ben Jenkins and his Warstic Sports Inc. team held a charity “sandlot” baseball game featuring musician Jack White and The Raconteurs, Ian Kinsler and other well known national and local celebrities alike at the “Chon”.

We interviewed Friends of Reverchon Park member and MarketScale contributor Gerry Mecca about the event. He gave us a great breakdown of the event and some ways that people can contribute to the cause even after the game.
