I feel that it would be a mistake not to go forward with the additional lighted <br />sports fields at the Bernal Property. <br /> <br />My son has played PONY baseball for 4 years now and where we are going to play year in and <br />year eut always seems to he up in the air. Hatter of fact, just this past weekend my <br />son's team played another Pleasanton team in Livermore. He has never been able to <br />practice on a field, his teams have always had to scramble to find practice space. We <br />usually wind up on the blacktop or grass of an elementary school. The kids get <br />frustrated that there are not enough "real" baseball fields for them to play on. Many <br />other communities in the area put an emphasis on youth and do whatever it takes to make <br />sure that our youth know that they come first. Youth sports is a huge part of our <br />community. It was a part of all of our lives growing up and it nurtures a lot of positive <br />character traits like teamwork, discipline, responsibility, self-esteem and respect. If <br />we do not show the kids that the community cares about them by thinking of their needs <br />then how will that make them feel? We are trying to "Build a Community of Character," <br />right? So let's keep in mind that our kids learn by our actions and we need te act like <br />we care. <br /> <br />Thank you for taking the time out to let me share my thoughts. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Georgia Cisneros <br /> {PONY Baseball Mom) <br /> <br /> <br />
