Readers' Choice: Where do you buy your sporting goods?

Spring is here, and that means one thing: If you haven't already, it's time to purchase a new baseball glove, lacrosse stick or cleats for your youngster. Perhaps the warm weather has encouraged you to take up running. Either way, it's likely you'll be making a trip or two to the nearest sporting good store. So this week, we want you to tell us where you purchase your gear.

Do you head out of town to the big box sports stores where you'll have a larger selection? Or do you have a favorite local establishment?

This is your chance to share with Patch readers the best place to go in your town or in your area. If you forgot the name of that store down the street that has fantastic deals or great customer service check out our directory.

Share your suggestions and give us your opinions and we'll tell you who the best of the best is based on your nominations and votes.

As a reminder, here's how our Readers' Choice feature works:

• We'll ask a question about your favorites.
• We invite you to post your nominations in the comments below.
• We hope you'll also spread the word about this to your friends on Facebook and Twitter and get them involved.
• Submit comments until 5 p.m. Wednesday.

Then:

• We'll take the nominees and post a poll first thing Thursday morning.
• After the poll starts on Thursday, you'll be able to vote till Friday at 9 a.m.
• On Saturday, we announce the winner.

This review is all about you — your ideas, your feedback and your voice — so we hope you will chime in and check back.
