The Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame & Museum is honoring more than 100 native Cincinnatians in the new exhibition Hometown Reds: Local Boys Who Played for the Cincinnati Reds.  Hometown Reds features jerseys, game-used equipment and memorabilia dating back 145 years to 1869 when Charlie Gould became the first Cincinnatian to play for the hometown team.

“If you are from the Cincinnati area and played baseball at any age, you probably dreamed of playing for the Reds,” said Rick Walls, executive director of the Reds Hall of Fame & Museum. “Our new exhibit honors the 104 players whose dreams became a reality.” The exhibit includes a player mural along with a graphic map highlighting the towns in southwest Ohio, northern Kentucky and southeastern Indiana from which the Hometown Reds hailed. Visitors to the exhibit will enjoy personal recollections from some of the Hometown Reds through new video interviews that run continuously in the exhibit space.

We are excited to announce that the 5 star British Golf Museum has recently received approval from the local council to build an 80 seater café on top of our iconic building.  The café will have stunning views over the Old Course and West Sands beach and will be a great place to relax.  The museum itself will undergo major refurbishment during this period and, when we reopen, will have a fresh, contemporary feel with new and exciting exhibits.

The British Golf Museum will close to the public at the end of June 2014 with a planned reopening in early May 2015.
