Everyone knows that Maryland, the Seventh State, has a rich and colorful history. Did you know that our great state is also no slouch when it comes to the world of sports? Phrases like Purple Friday, Oriole Magic, the Sack Pack and the Sultan of Swat need no explanation in these parts. Join us on April 1 at noon to test your knowledge of the teams and Maryland athletes who have brought glory to the world of sport when Jeff Korman brings his Maryland Sports History challenge to St. Michael’s.
Spend some time reminiscing and sharing stories about some of our iconic sports teams, professional and amateur, and some of the great players who have performed for them. This program includes images of the historic events, places, teams, personalities and a fair bit of sports memorabilia. A program that everyone in the family can enjoy.
