Why are we not holding events at Roberts Stadium? Who is in charge of booking acts there?

Please keep up.
The mayor has already stated that the ball fields idea on Roberts Stadium property is old news and it is time for the CVB to find a new location. He supports the ball fields idea but states it will not happen in Wesselman Park.
Also, what is being discussed in these categories and ideas for Roberts WILL NOT COMPETE WITH THE FORD CENTER. They would be designed to offer the public additional options for events.
