Hi John-We implemented the Legends program this year for season ticket holders of 10 years or more, which is basically the time we have owned the team. We kicked it off with a wonderful dinner event this summer with Coach Westphal that received very positive reviews. Our season ticket holders are our most important asset and we are looking for new and innovative ways to enhance their experience.
Ed-I think the fans will really enjoy watching our team play under Coach Westphal. We are so impressed by he and his staff here in Training Camp. I am 100% confident that our guys will play hard night in and night out. Also,our players very personable and love to interact with the fans. This is a group of players and coaches that want to be here in Sacramento and want to
engage with the fans. That is very important in creating great PR.
We continue to work under the guidance of the NBA on finding a solution to the arena situation here in Sacramento and remain positive and optimistic that something can be worked out. One aspect that is extremely helpful is that Mayor Kevin Johnson is very engaged in the process and really wants to find a solution. As far as ticket sales, we are working harder than ever to
retain our season ticket base and cultivate new fans. We have introduced a number of new ticket packages and pricing plans to make it more convenient for our fan base to experience the excitement at ARCO Arena.
Jay-We have been working to create some cap space the past couple years in hopes that we can utilize that flexibility to add a significant player or two to our roster. Geoff Petrie is one of the most experienced and successful GMs in the NBA and we are confident he will find options in the near future that can make an impact within our organization. In the present, we are extremely pleased with the work that Paul Westphal and his staff have done to develop our young core. We feel there is some star potential already on our roster.
Hi Jaylee-We have been shopping the Rebuilding The Kingdom show concept to some networks. We are hopeful we can get something done because we feel there are some terrific storylines with our players, coaching staff and organization. We feel the national exposure is a terrific thing for the organization and the Sacramento Region.
