City of Lawrence Partnership

OYO Knows: Partnership with City of Lawrence  

Since 1975, OYO and the City of Lawrence Parks and Recreation Department have enjoyed a true partnership to provide baseball and softball experiences to all interested youth ballplayers in Lawrence and surrounding communities.  

OYO and the City of Lawrence have established 10-year annual agreements for use of the facility, which includes five-year reviews for any necessary addendums. These terms document proper expectations for usage and maintenance of the facility by both parties. 

To ensure it remains in good standing, OYO delivers and presents an annual State of OYO Report to the Parks and Recreation Board, which addresses the organization’s annual performance including program participation, fundraising and fiscal activity.
