Background:
The Department of Parks, Recreation and Public Facilities has been
co -sponsoring the Florida Golden Gloves National Tournament for the
past twelve (12) years. This special boxing event attracts over 300
amateur boxers who will participate in competitive matches with the
winners going on to possible Olympic trials. This year the four
night event will attract over 6,000 spectators and will be extensive-
ly covered by local and regional television and other news media.
This event affords the Department of Parks, Recreation and Public Fa-
cilities the opportunity to showcase the "Magic City" as a youth ori-
ented recreation and sports community. Through the extensive
coverage by the news media, the Golden Gloves Tournament will convey
positive images of Miami's concern for the future of it4s youth to
I the entire nation.
Approval of the proposed resolution will permit the sponsors to
finalize the schedules; arrange for the necessary transportation,
and initiate a comprehensive promotion program.
