Great American Ball Park To Host Group Tours Public Opportunity to See Progress Firsthand |
|
July 5, 2002 –
Representatives from Hamilton County have announced a group tour plan
for Great American Ball Park. This opportunity will give civic
organizations, professional societies and public groups the chance to tour
the construction site and see the immediate progress of the ball park and
although tour opportunities and size will be limited, Hamilton County wanted
to give the public some access to the project. |
||
| The group tours
will occur the third Wednesday of every month, with the first tour beginning
on August 21. Each tour will be 30 minutes long, and each group will be
limited to 30 participants. There will be a total of three tours each day
with the first tour of the day beginning at 3:30 p.m. The group tour dates
are as follows: |
||
| August 21 September 18 October 16 |
November 20 December 18 January 15 (2003) |
|
| “Our main goals
are to complete the project safely, on time and on budget,” said Mike
Sieving, Construction Project Executive for Hamilton County. “We are now
planning events that will allow the public to tour Great American Ball Park
upon its completion in March 2003. At this time, we are pleased to announce
that we are offering tours to small groups to see the work in progress.” |
||
| Groups interested
in signing up for a tour can do so by calling 513-564-0700. Each group will
then be required to fill out a group tour registration form. All forms must
be returned by noon on the first working day of each month. A random drawing
will determine winning entries on that day. The winners will be notified
that month. Groups not selected for one month will remain eligible for
subsequent tours. |

Great American
Ball Park will be open for the 2003 season. |
