Director of Parks and Recreation
City of Chanhassen

Dear Jerry:
I enjoyed meeting you today and talking about some of the things that we are thinking
about at the Chan/Chaska Soccer Club. As I mentioned, we are in the early formative
stages of our development but have identified the need for more funds raising programs
to assist in organization of the club and the enhancement of the resources we use for
practice and games. This obviously has a direct link to the city and the efforts of your
group.
Given that we are just beginning to plan for fund raising and capital equipment programs,
it would probably be beneficial for us to get together some time for lunch so that we can
learn more about what each group is attempting to achieve. Joe Scott, our President and I
will attempt to call you in the next couple of months to see if there is a mutually
convenient time for us to meet.
As we had previouSly committed, I am enclosing a check in the amount of $2,500 as a
donation to the city Park and Recreation Department in recognition of the support
provided in hosting soccer tournaments last summer.
Thank you again for your support of our club.
Sincerely,
Richard C. Carlson
