Was out at Hara Saturday for the 'New Dayton Gems' open house. The Gems inaugural season begins in October. Hara spruced up a bit with fresh paint and new glass for the return of the Gems. Guy Trottier from the old Gems is director of Operations.
So Guy is here. I believe Moe Benoit still lives in the area. Pat Rupp passed away a few years ago. Anyone know the whereabouts of any other members of the old Gems?

My favorite "Baby Bruin" was Sid Garant. I also wondered what happened to him ... I don't think he ever made it to the NHL.

I caught a Gems game Thanksgiving weekend. It was a lot of fun to go back to Hara!

Riverdale Rat, Those Cincy Royals were some nostalgia. It'd be great to have that return, but you know Cincinnati is just not a basketball town, at least at that level. The market is just too small.

I bet those old Gems would be in their 70s James. I'd love to know how they're doing. I was a big fan when I was a kid.
