April 1, 2024 – History of the Heartland is sponsoring its second annual “Play ball! Sports card and memorabilia show.” The show will take place on Saturday, April 6. 9 am-3 pm at the Decatur Civic Center, 1 Gary Anderson Plaza, Decatur, IL.
Vendors will be set up in the two meeting rooms in the lobby of the Decatur Civic Center. There will be dozens of tables of sports cards and memorabilia set up. Vendor tables are $25 each and include an 8’ table.
