We held our first meeting in February, 2006.  It was apparent from the immediate excitement and number of volunteers wanting to help that we could make a local Miracle League happen!

 

Within a the first year, we had formed a Board or Directors, received offers of land, construction assistance, free legal support, enjoyed the endorsement of local civic commissions and councils, and our story was featured in numerous newspaper articles.

 

In 2007, we established our non-profit status, received a commitment for $500,000 from Catellus (a local developer), and selected a building site and entered into talk with the City of Alameda for the lease of the land.  We stretched the word of the Miracle League in featured news stories, magazine articles, and radio and television stories.  We also began our formal fundraising campaign.

 

We plan to start building in the Spring of 2008!
