Home My WebLink AboutM-83-0140F IN OCA it TO Howard V. Gary City Manager CITY OF MIAMI. FLORIDA INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM Ca4 FROM t ! H.ward, rector Department of Recreation DATE January 26, 1983 FILE SUBJECT. Request for Orange Bowl Semi -Pro Football REFERENCES ENCLOSURES: The Miami Semi -Pro Football League has played ten (10) games at their home field at Gibson Park and three (3) at the Baseball Stadium. It is a well organized league and is a fine example of community spirit and participation. The majority of players are from the Overtown area. The league is self-supporting and works closely with the Recreation Department and local sponsors. Recently funds were raised through the games played at the Miami Stadium. As part of the Partners for Youth week, Feb. 13-19, the coor- dinator for PFY requested the Miami League to be part of the scheduled activities and play their all-star game in the Orange Bowl, Saturday, February 19, 1983. The team is enthusiastically cooperating with Partners for Youth in attempting to stimulate participation throughout the community. We have been coordinating programs with Partners and their assistance has made it possible to supplement other recreation programs during the summer months. The football game is essen- tially another City & Partners community program. It would be a unique opportunity for the Miami League to achieve well deserved recognition. I would recommend that Partners pay all direct costs from audited gate receipts and the City waive the $1,500.00 users' fee.
