960: <br />V1ffYWCA <br />of Paris and Lamar County <br />308 South Main Paris, Texas 75460 (903) 785 -5221 <br />January 6, 1995 <br />Dick Boots <br />Community Facilities Director <br />City Hall <br />Paris, Texas 75460 <br />Dear Mr. Boots, <br />The YWCA uses Culbertson Park extensively to provide its girls' Little Dixie <br />Softball program during the spring and summer. The facilities at Wise Park <br />are also used. <br />Approximately 250 girls between the ages of 7 and 15 play on the fields each <br />summer. During the time that the girls are playing, parents and siblings also <br />enjoy the facilities at the park. In an age when children spend too much time <br />on their own, the sports program we offer in partnership with the city <br />(through the use of Culbertson Park) provides wholesome activity and quality <br />family time for the girls. <br />Improving facilities in any way contributes to the safety and well -being of the <br />girls in our program, as well as providing a more aesthetically pleasing <br />environment. A Master Plan which would guide the upgrade of park facilities <br />would be welcomed and appreciated by the YWCA. <br />Sincerely, <br />Priscilla Merriman <br />Executive Director <br />Member Agency Lamar County United Way <br />
