Diamonds on the Diamond 2007 event scheduled for November 10th at Ed Smith Stadium has been cancelled

Dear Sarasota Area Sports Supporter,
 
Due to the loss of our title sponsor and additional corporate underwriting resources, the Sarasota Area Sports Authority (SASA) Board of Directors decided to cancel the Diamonds on the Diamond event for 2007. Another fundraising event is currently being planned for February 2007, which will include honoring SASA’s 2007 High School Scholar Athletes and Sports Person of the Year.
 
The SASA Board expresses its sincere gratitude to the organizations, businesses and individuals who have supported SASA and its community outreach programs, including the Diamonds on the Diamond sponsors noted on this page.
