Email: agenda@bozeman.net Mail to: Attn: City Commission PO Box 1230 Bozeman, MT 59771 First Name Jeannie Last Name Counce Email Address jeannie.counce@nhia.org Phone Number 4066002649 Comments I would like to encourage the commission to approve the proposed baseball "hitting facility" that is planned for Heroes Park, home of the Bozeman Bucks. As an active baseball parent, I can attest to the commitment of time and resources that has gone into planning and fundraising for this much-needed facility. It truly has been a community effort. The facility will benefit the community as well. With limited outdoor practice conditions, Bucks teams typically have to beg and borrow pre-season practice space from a patchwork of private and other public locations (MSU, BHS). Having a dedicated hitting facility will allow players more time--and continuity--to develop their skills and benefit from all the other good things that stem from sports participation. The Bucks are a community gem. With 4 different teams, they represent Bozeman on the road and here at home. Heroes is a great place to catch a game--even if you don't have a kid on the team--as evidenced by the many locals (and veterans) who frequent the games. Please approve this facility so these kids--and future teams--can continue to up their game.
