Reopening of Baseball Field

The baseball field has been closed for more than six months. Write a letter of about 250 words to the authorities urging them to re-open the field as soon as possible. Explain the popularity of the field and the negative effects of such closure.

Dear Sir,

Reopening of Baseball Field

I am writing to urge the authorities to re-open the baseball field in our community as soon as possible.

The baseball field has been extremely popular among people from all walks of life. School kids are passionate about baseball. They began playing baseball at a young age and can hardly give it up for other sports. They look forward to Saturday morning sessions which are more than baseball practice as they spend quality time with their family as well. The baseball field is also the venue for league baseball games, which have a strong following in the community. We love to support them in these games. Our home team used to train a lot at the field.

The closure of the baseball field means that school kids have to go to another baseball field for practice sessions. That field is at a very inconvenient location and school kids have to spend on average an extra hour both ways. This is hardly a good use of their precious time. Baseball fans also loathe traveling long distances to support their home team. Our home team also blames the closure for their poor performance in recent months. All these people have joined hands in pushing for the re-opening of the baseball field.  I would therefore be most grateful if you would seriously consider the request and proactively make arrangements for the re-opening, which will be a positive response to the community’s needs.  I look forward to hearing from you soon on this matter.

 

Yours faithfully,

Ken
