A Professional Soccer Star Visits Union Street

On Monday, June 22, soccer fans on the SouthCoast will fill the National Club on Union Street to cheer for their favorites, sip on specialty cocktails, and mingle with one of the area's best soccer talents. Gunn, a native of Panama, is the goalkeeper for the Revs and also represented his home country on the Panama National Team.
