all-star planning is underway with major league baseball staffers right here in town. their arrival delayed a bit by
Mlb All Star Game Locations, the northeast snow conditions. but once they finally got here today they really hit the ground
running. wlwt news 5's john london is live for us at the ballpark tonight where much much the advance work is going on. yeah, they are having meetings tonight and into
tomorrow to plan for things like the five-day fan fest, that will be during all-star week, the color run, you know they had a record 27,000 runners in minnesota last year. there will be a futures game, a
vip gala. maybe a free concert at ball brown stadium. red's chief operating officer says the pregame spruce up is on. as you can see behind me a
lot of work going on. we've got probably more stadium projects going on than we've had in any off season doing a lot of work on our concessions, redoing our river front club. the county is doing a lot of painting and
maintenance up grades to the facility which are scheduled maintenance but it's kind of getting as much as we can done before opening day and in preparation for the all-stars. a couple dozen mlb
staffers are in town impressed, he said, with the kind of activity that will stretch from washington park down to the river and retailers and restaurant owners are also pumped. p.
technically fountain square will not be an mlb clean zone where no other advertising is allowed but it will be a big league location all weak. weeks. so will the banks where it will
be blocked off for street parks. let me frame the expectations for you. the holy grail alone sold 15,000 beers that day. a half dozen out of state
companies have already tried to rent the grail for all-star week, the whole week. we turned all those down. we want to have our tpeg fans in regular fans in here for all-star week. open to the public.

conference rooms tonight and tomorrow mapping out locations for various events. dan lincoln of the convention and visitors bureau meets with mlb tomorrow. the city will be beautiful, exciting.
duke energy convention center will be a hub where the fan zone will be located. it's preliminary will you mlb is exploring possible use of paul brown stadium so stay tuned. merchandise with the official
logo will be typical summer wear around here whether you're a vip or just a p. when i got to go as a 14-year-old to the 1988 game we'll be creating new memories for the next generation. the game will be here but
parties and parades will spill out to washington park and other neighborhoods. 200,000 visitors anticipated, many international, a picture-perfect summer for a city where
baseball was born. and the organizing committee already has 5,000 volunteers lined up. the estimated economic impact that is dollars spent they are saying is around $60 million.
$3million to be invested in community projects that was part of today's discussion, and the slogan to memorize and repeat often is "game on cincinnati." reporting live at great american ballpark.
john london, wlwt news 5. get used to seeing the baseball people. any left over planning by mlb will pick up next month. staffers expect to be here in our area every
