Box 734 Round Rock, Texas 78680 February 15, 1988 Mr. Bob Bennett City Manager City of Round Rock 221 East Main Street Round Rock, Texas 78664 Dear Mr. Bennett: Our baseball league consists of 13 -14, 15 -16, and 17 -18 year old young men (fifteen teams in all). Our district officials out of the Austin area have contacted our league and offered three Colt star tournaments for us to host this summer. (ages 15 -16) The first tournamant would be on an Austin area level where perhaps 10 teams would compete for one week, all teams being from the local area. It would lead up to another tourney called a Regional Colt Tournament which would bring into Round Rock teams from San Antonio, Corpus Christi and Austin. The third tournament (Zone) would host teams from Houston, the Rio Grande Valley and Louisiana. Our total costs for these tournaments could exceed $3,000.00 and were currently searching for some assistance from the City or the Chamber to bring these people into Round Rock. We can offset some of our expenses with gate admissions and concession stand profits; however, we know our treasury cannot pick up the difference. We, like many other youth sports organizations are working toward our new facilities at the Old Settler's Park at Palm Valley. My Vice President, Randall Jones, and I would be happy to meet with you or your staff should there be any type of assistance the City or the Chamber might have for this cause. I have enclosed a copy of our current budget which does not contain any amount of funds for tournaments hosted by our League. Thank you for your consideration in this matter.
