Tri County Legion Baseball Organization
(TCLBO) was formed August 29, 1994. Tri County Legion Baseball Organization, Inc.
(TCLBO, Inc.) became a non-profit corporation officially on August 4, 1997. The organization is classified as a section 509 (a) (2) organization and is exempt from federal income tax under section 501 (a) of the Internal Revenue Code as a Public Supported Organization described in section 501 (c) (3). The organization was formed to bring American Legion Baseball to the
Tri County District, construct a Legion baseball facility within the District, and to maintain it. The organization is committed to this project and providing opportunities to the youth of the
Tri County District. TCLBO, Inc. is addressing the need for a worthwhile activity for youth ages 15-19 in the Tri County District. Legion baseball, prior to 1995, was not an option for the youth of the Tri County District, except for a select few that played for area teams at Wilber and Daykin. The establishment of our program in the Tri County District has allowed many youth to participate in this great activity. We must give our youth these types of activities if we expect them to succeed. TCLBO, Inc. has been very successful with many achievements since inception. Our teams played all games on the road since our inaugural teams of 1995, but did play home games for the first time during the 2000 season. TCLBO, Inc. purchased 14 acres from the Tri County Public Schools and began construction on June 19, 1998. This ground was purchased with funds that had been raised by TCLBO, Inc. in the previous years. TCLBO, Inc. has held many successful fund-raisers since inception and continues raising funds to complete the construction phase of the project and continued operating costs. *Historical Timeline: *1994 - Idea to start Legion program *1995 - First Legion teams (all road games thru 1999) *1997 - Class C State Champions *1997 - TCLBO became Incorporated *1998 - Purchased ground from Tri County Public Schools *2000 - Played "day" baseball on new field *2006 - Used new field lighting for 1st night game 6/25/06 *2007 - 8th season using field - 13th Legion season |
