RE: SCRAPS Follow-up

Hi Otto I’m copying Ronnie Schlabs on this email. Ronnie is the new SCRAPS director. He started with Spokane County on December 8th so is still getting his arms around everything. Feel free to reach out to Ronnie directly to discuss the partnership between the Spokane Indians and SCRAPS. As he is newly stepping into this role, I’m sure he will appreciate all the background and history you can provide him. His contact # is 509-477-1967 Scott

SCRAPS Follow-up

Hi Amber, Happy New Year! I hope you had a good holiday break with your family. Following up from our conversation at the Visit Spokane event, you asked me some questions on the SCRAPS partnership here at the ballpark and I wanted to get back to you. Yes, we just completed a 3-year agreement ('23-'25) and now is the time we typically renew. A complete summary deck of our partnership can be found here. We have not been told directly, but we've heard some comments through the grapevine that SCRAPS won't be returning moving forward...? I'm hoping this is just hearsay. We've thoroughly loved our partnership with SCRAPS at the ballpark and the five (5) SCRAPS Bark in the Park nights have a huge following and really bring the local animal rescue organizations together. How would you like us to proceed with the agreement? Our former contact was Cat Nichols who is now overseeing different county departments. We'd also like to take your offer up on meeting the new local Director. Thanks, Otto Otto Klein Senior Vice President Email: oklein@spokaneindians.com Phone: 509-343-6814 Avista Stadium 602 N Havana St, Spokane, WA 99202 www.spokaneindians.com
