Margot Kapusinski, pictured here in the the SNY studio, was selected as one of ten finalists in the New York Mets Kidcaster contest.
My niece, Margot Kapusinski, (daughter of Frank and Doreen) recently got a chance to audition at the SNY studio in New York City as one of ten finalists in the New York Mets Kidcaster contest. This contest, open to children ages 7 to 12, invites the winner to join the Mets broadcasting team of Gary Cohen, Keith Hernandez and Ron Darling in announcing a half inning of a Mets game on-air from the SNY booth.
Ten finalists were selected to read their essays in front of a panel of judges in the SNY studio.
Margot’s essay was selected as one of the ten finalists and she not only read her essay but also “called” some plays in front of the judges. She told me she had a “delightful” day with her parents (as she missed a day of school) to travel into the city.
The winner will be announced on the Mets broadcast, Thursday May 29th.
