Grovewood Baseball Museum
 
Has anyone been here to visit? Looks like an amazing collection! Is the owner a member here possibly? Hope to find out more and plan a visit. Looks like a hidden gem!

Yeah, Morristown in East TN it looks like. Hour from Knoxville or Johnson City. Saw some pictures of the Andruw Jones event. Looks like they have Fergie Jenkins dinner and signing coming up soon. Pretty cool if you are near that area.

I'm headed out there next month for a Fergie Jenkins signing. I'm only about an hour away in Johnson City. The owner of the museum only does tours so the museum is not always open. Cost is free if you're in the area, just have to hit him up on his web page, he is seems more than excited to show people around.

... and here is his SABR interview where he dives deep into the how and why. Pretty interesting.

I haven't yet been but did contact him and, as mentioned above, he would be only too happy to show people around. I am also about an hour away in Kingsport.

Looks like David Justice is there this weekend for a dinner and signing.

It's a cool place. Jamison and I are discussing showing off parts of my cardboard collection there to complement his memorabilia. Stay tuned!
