Business owners and baseball fans alike, now is the time to take a stand to keep the Tampa Bay Rays in the Sunshine City!
As I wrote Monday, with a little help from the city’s marketing department, St. Petersburg is developing a new ballpark proposal for the existing Tropicana Field site, and will soon be submitting this proposal to the Rays. The community’s support for this is essential.
We now need to show our love and enthusiasm for the Rays, and ask that you pledge your support to encourage the Rays to build a new ballpark in St. Petersburg.
Please watch the video (below) — which was created to encourage business owners and economic development leaders to take the pledge, and explain WHY it is so crucial for the City’s economic health that the Rays to stay in St. Petersburg, — then visit www.baseballforever.com/#pledge and click the “Sign The Pledge” button to pledge your support. You also can click the pledge button on the right-hand side of this site to instantly be redirected to above linked page.
