Dear Sponsor,
The 2008 Hamlin Park Baseball season is fast approaching and we need your support to help keep youth baseball thriving in the city of Chicago.
As you may already know, this program is a big part of the community surrounding Hamlin Park, including Roscoe Village, West Lakeview and North Center. Each year the association provides baseball to more than 700 kids ranging from pre-school to high school. Plus, it’s run entirely by neighborhood volunteers without any financial support from either the city or the park district.
That’s why we must ask for donations from neighbors like you, the business owners and local organizations that have made this program a tremendous success year after year.
This season, we invite you to make a big hit in your community by helping us in two ways. The first is to sponsor a team, and the second is to sponsor an entire division.
To get involved, please see the next page for various sponsorship levels and benefits, then simply complete and mail the enclosed form to secure your sponsorship.
We thank you in advance for your support of the Hamlin Park Baseball Association. Your sponsorship dollars will go a long way to keeping many kids off the street and enable them to enjoy a safe, fun and competitive summer.
Sincerely,
James Dore, Sponsorship Coordinator
Hamlin Park Baseball Association
