"The Glove Whisperer" Coming To Danbury Museum

Danbury, CT - On Thursday, July 19, the Danbury Museum & Historical welcomes 'The Glove Whisperer' to the Danbury Museum & Historical Society from 12:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m.

 Mason Jenkins, better known as 'The Glove Whisperer', is taking appointments to help ball players get their baseball and softball gloves ready for play. 

 The Glove Whisperer's all natural conditioning process is proprietary and environmentally green as it does not use any chemicals, oils, or other compounds that effect the durability of the glove or harm the player.  Jenkins as successfully conditioned fielders, first base and catchers gloves from most manufactures.  Other glove conditioning processes rely upon chemicals, high heat, microwave or other time consuming processes that are often harmful to the glove, actually robbing the player of both performance and durability.

 Since its beginning several years ago, parents and players at every level from professional to pre-high school have embraced the GloveWhisperer's process of 'Accelerated Glove Conditioning.  New and old gloves arrive at their workshop from all over the United States.   Conversations and testimonials indicate that the players who lack strength at beginner and intermediate stages are in real need of total glove flexibility.  This helps inspire the player by giving them incredible physical benefits and unlimited psychological advantages. 

 Reservations for an appointment can be made by phoning the museum at 203.743.5200. Admission is free, however, pricing for the Glove Whisperer's service depends on the model and condition of the glove.
