Greetings from Lady Lake Little League!
Each season the Lady Lake Little League supports over 200 youth, ages 4 to 15 from the counties of Lake, Sumter and Marion. Little League Baseball, Incorporated is a non-profit organization whose mission is to "to promote, develop, supervise, and voluntarily assist in all lawful ways, the interest of those who will participate in Little League Baseball and Softball." Through proper guidance and exemplary leadership, the Little League program assists youth in developing the qualities of citizenship, discipline, teamwork and physical well-being. By espousing the virtues of character, courage and loyalty, the Little League Baseball and Softball program is designed to develop superior citizens rather than superior athletes.
Without the generous contributions and involvement of our local businesses and organizations we are forced to either reduce the number of programs we offer or eliminate them completely. We are currently looking for Field Sponsors, Team Sponsors, Umpire Sponsors, Banner Sponsors, advertisers in our programs and scholarship donations. The attached outlines the different levels of sponsorship that we offer along with what is included in the package.
We appreciate your time and consideration and hope your organization or business will choose to be an actively involved member of the Lady Lake Little League organization. Please remember all donations are tax deductible.
Thank you,
Ginny Brooks
President
