David Dunn I Would Like to Work With You

Mr. Dunn,

Over these past few weeks, you've taken quite a bit of grief for your project. I am here to let you know that if you are willing to move this ballfield project away from historic Roberts Stadium and over to Kleymeyer Park where it belongs I am more than willing to work with you to make these ballfields the best damn ballfields not just locally but in the entire country.

I firmly believe that we can build replica ballfields ( http://www.bigleaguedreams.com/replica-fields ) and even if the local governments aren't interested we can even find private financing for it ( http://www.bigleaguedreams.com/corporate/park-development ). Baseball fans will come from all over the country to see these fields Mr. Dunn. We can take great pride in watching Don Mattingly take the first pitch at the Yankee Stadium replica field as the old time baseball organ plays "Take Me Out To The Ball Game." Garvin Park will once again come back to life as the winners of the tournaments face off at historic Bosse Field. North Main Street will be taken back to 1915 when it all began.

For a small amount of $32,500 we can find out for sure what to do with Roberts Stadium. I believe that study will find us several great options for Roberts Stadium that include an indoor waterpark, an indoor recreational center, or a botanical garden. Roberts Stadium has 54 great years of history inside her. She means too much to this community to demolish her. Roberts Stadium was there for us in that terrible year of 1977 when our community lost 29 great UE men. Now it's our time to be there for her.

Mr. Dunn, I want you to know that I appreciate you beginning this project. It took a lot of guts to get this going. Now I'm asking for you to make the wise decision to move the fields and save Roberts Stadium! I truly believe that if we save Roberts Stadium and build at Kleymeyer Park we will have a project that generations and generations of future Evansvillians will cherish and enjoy. If we build these fields they will come, and if we save Roberts Stadium more people will come.

I've talked to the neighbors on Boeke, they will support us. I talked to Marsha Abell, she will support us. I've gotten email after email from Evansville residents, they will support us. I've gotten email after email from fellow Roberts Stadium supporters, they will support us. Evansville needs and wants Roberts Stadium and Kleymeyer Park ballfields to be a success.

Feel free to email me anytime (JordanBaer1@gmail.com). Let's do this project right and let's get it across the finish line! Whataya say?

Sincerely,

Jordan Baer
