Current Goal

This Travelbug Keychain is in honor of my late father.  He was a HUGE, lifelong, Dodger Fan.  Besides his children, and  grandchildren, baseball was the great love of his life.  He played, coached, umpired, kept score, ran the little league snack bar, maintained our local fields, you name it, he did it (with mom's help of course ;P). One of his dreams was to visit every MAJOR LEAGUE ball park in America and Canada.  He crossed a lot of them off on his list, but was not able to complete his mission before he lost his battle.  I don't have the time or resources to finish his dream for him, so I figure, hey, lets see if a Travel bug can accomplish this feat!!  I have engraved the tracking code on a metal DODGERS Keychain (that was his favorite team), but he was a good sport about anything baseball so please FEEL FREE to ADD any baseball related keychains on to it as it travels, even if it is from another team, or even a minor league team!   If you do, snap a picture and share it, I would LOVE to see it's progress as it travels around! Also, my Dad was a huge REDSKINS (yes, i know that's a football team) fan, if this bug ends up near their stadium, I would love for it to visit them as well! One day, if it accomplishes it's goal, it can return to me, and I can retire it with honors!

Here is a link to a map that has all the ballparks, and their locations listed: http://billsportsmaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/mlb_08attendance_map_b.gif

 

 

About This Item

Formerly a travelbug glued to a plastic skateboard that was lost, this trackable code has been repurposed and given a new life as a trackable baseball (DODGERS) keychain, feel free to add other baseball related keychains on as it goes on its journey!  If for any reason the trackable code engraved on the keychain becomes unreadable, please message me on geocaching or email me @ Srin_2001@yahoo.com with photo proof you have it, and I'll give you the code to log it. HAPPY CACHING! PLAY BALL!

This trackable is CLEARLY never going to be moved by The Brothers Vogel as they have not logged on for 3 years and I have made multiple attempts to contact them. Taking the tracking code and putting it to use on a different Item and starting over. Will drop in a local Geocache soon!
