Giants Trophy Tour to visit Livermore Community Center

The Livermore Area Recreation and Park District will host the San Francisco Giants World Championship Trophy Tour presented by Bank of America on Saturday, March 2, at the Robert Livermore Community Center.

Fans will get the opportunity to have their photo taken with the 2010 and 2012 Major League Baseball’s Commissioner’s Trophies, crafted by Tiffany & Co. The stop with LARPD is part of a three-month public tour to share the MLB Commissioner’s trophies with Giants fans in Junior Giants communities throughout Northern California.

LARPD operates Randy Johnson Field, named for the former Giants pitcher who went to Livermore High School. The field is home to Livermore’s own Junior Giants, a free and noncompetitive baseball program providing opportunities for children to demonstrate confidence and leadership, to link with adult mentors and to develop a strong understanding of the importance of literacy and healthy living. This will be the fourth year for Junior Giants in Livermore. Fans having their photo taken with the trophies will have the opportunity to support LARPD’s Junior Giants by making a voluntary contribution.

The LARPD stop on the tour will be from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, March 2, at the Robert Livermore Community Center, 4444 East Ave., Livermore.

Personal Photo Policy

There have been a large number of fans attending each of the trophy viewings. The Giants intend to accommodate as many fans as possible during the viewing time period. Fans can take photos of the trophies with their personal cameras up to a designated area while waiting in line. Once fans have reached that designated area, only the professional photographers will be allowed to take a posed photo of you or your group.

Line Policy

Fans are advised to arrive early as the line will be cut off, if needed, to allow the trophies to leave at the designated end time. A Giants representative will assess and determine a cutoff point in line. A fan arriving during the designated viewing time is not automatically guaranteed a photo with the trophies. Fans are accommodated on a first-come, first-served basis.

I agree here....the new layout for Livermore Patch is HORRIBLE!!!!FOR MANY REASONS!!!! HERE'S MYRead More DEAL....EITHER CHANGE IT BACK TO THE LAYOUT IT HAD OR I WILL LEAVE...

Short and sweet , it sucks big time!!!!! I rarely go on the patch anymore, it's got way to muchRead More going on, whoever thought up this format thought wrong, bring back the old patch. All the negative comments here need to taken into consideration!!

I agree with My2Cents that news and opinion (blogs) should be separate sections. For me to post anRead More actual news item, I can either start a blog which seems more appropriate for commentary, or post an announcement that will be buried in between lost cats, yard sales and other personal posts. The only way to get news into the news section is to have an editor pick it up, but with the onslaught of information and shortage of editors - many of them handling several Patch sites - chances are slim.

i love the passion people show in Livermore! Thanks for posting. Luckily, it was not burnt out.Read More http://livermore.patch.com/groups/breaking-news/p/worlds-longest-burning-light-bulb-out-but-only-overnight

The light bulb is back on. Ironically, it was a device that was installed to protect the bulb fromRead More power surges that failed. When the bulb was reconnected to unfiltered power, it came back on.

About the only electric vehicle I would consider buying is one that did not require charging off ofRead More any other sources other than its own--meaning that it charges its own batteries, either thorough motion while it's on the road or through something like solar cells charging up the batteries and keeping them charged, even when the car is parked and it's sitting in a parking lot on a sunny day--until that happens, no electric vehicle is going to be practical outside of anything other than short trips or the commute. And as for how you got your vehicle, are there any other "carrots" out there that can be dangled in front of you so you can follow them, even into the oblivion known as electric vehicles that require charging from a source that is not part of your vehicle--because that sounds stupid and foolish to me. It sounds more like it is somebody's Pavlovian experiment to change our behavior if we buy the electric cars being marketed out there instead of waiting for the next generation of technology out there, the kind that won't require charging up the batteries or keeping them charged with plugging into an external electricity source. Before I would consider purchasing an electric vehicle, it should be self-charging so that a trans-continental driving trip could be sustained and made without worrying about running the batteries down and taking extra time to charge them up.

as well take advantage of it. What I'm talking about is a reasonable rate for charging that isRead More within going rates, not the usurious rates charged by certain companies. I always love the hundred yard heroes who hide behind a false screen name
Sean McMenamin May 21, 2013 at 10:56 am
I'm not a greenie.....the only reason we leased one is, because of the tax loophole on the taxes weRead More already pay, we have an essentially free car for a couple of years. Maybe you're just upset because you weren't smart enough to figure that out and take advantage of it. Just like everyone with their solar panels; if we're all forced to pay for it, you may

Seriously? AFGAHN food? Why can't we just get a Red Lobster or something?

Rafael and his crew do great work, and not just lawn service. He replaced our sprinkler system andRead More sodded two new lawns when we moved into our house. He and his crew have trimmed trees, planted flowers, and even built a new fence and gate. All at a fair price. I can't recommend his services enough.
