Help Gary Keep Baseball Fans Informed




I am a cancer survivor and freelance sportswriter who has dedicated years to covering the Cincinnati Reds. Until recently, I wrote monthly for the Reds Report, a publication for Reds fans. Unfortunately, the publication went bankrupt in December. My goal is to fill the void for those subscribers and others who enjoy daily coverage of the Reds and other Cincinnati based sports at home and on the road.

Despite these challenges, I remain committed to providing daily reports for Reds fans on my blog, www.fullofschatz.blogspot.com. As a credentialed member of the media, access is free. I ask anyone to contribute to expenses to continue coverage that is decreasing every day as outlets cut costs and eliminate staff.

My goal is to fill that void and keep Reds and all sports fans connected to their team.

The funds raised will go directly toward quality of coverage. I am not seeking income—just enough support to cover these essential costs. I will continue to pay other expenses out of my own pocket and plan to sell advertising to make ends meet. I am grateful for any help from Reds fans and supporters of independent sports journalism who want to see this coverage continue.

Your support will help keep the Reds community informed and engaged.
