This year was the first time my family attended Redsfest. I had no idea how HUGE this event was!!!
Redsfest is takes place in Duke Energy Convention Center which gives plenty of space for all things Cincinnati Reds.
The main floor had a variety of booths. You could purchase Cincinnati Reds memorabilia, get autographs from players, enjoy a variety of food vendors and get several freebies from various sponsors.
Kids can play baseball WITH players and also practice in several batting cages.
My boys took a free catching clinic with Cincinnati Reds players.
My kids got to play catch Cincinnati Reds players Devin Mesoraco and J.J. Hoover.
We watched a special session that featured Reds players past and present.
There was so much talent on the stage. I recognized several of the players from my childhood. Memories with baseball are like going back in time to different periods in your life.
I love that I get to share so many Cincinnati Reds baseball memories with my boys now.
