CuBfuND RECOmmENDatIONS<br />
CubFund is a $1 million <strong>com</strong>mitment made by the Cubs to fund unanticipated needs in the<br />
<strong>com</strong>munity over a ten-year period. The Cubs contributed more than $143,000 to CubFund for<br />
<strong>2012</strong> and the fund maintains an available, unspent balance in excess of $1.1 million. CubFund is<br />
available to be used in furtherance of neighborhood protection and improvement for matters<br />
related to Cubs baseball games and other events at Wrigley Field. It is intended to fund<br />
unanticipated expenses related to the impact of Cubs baseball games on the area surrounding<br />
Wrigley Field.<br />
CubFund may be used within the area bounded by the North Branch of the Chicago River,<br />
Diversey Parkway, Lake Michigan, Buena Avenue, Clark Street from Buena Avenue to Montrose<br />
Avenue and adjacent blocks, and at or around any remote parking lots. Uses are determined by<br />
the aldermen of wards neighboring Wrigley Field after input from the Cubs, the City of Chicago<br />
and the <strong>com</strong>munity.<br />
We hope you enjoyed reading about the Cubs Neighborhood Protection and Improvement<br />
program and its role in being a good neighbor and steward in the <strong>com</strong>munity. These efforts<br />
remain an important part of the ongoing partnership between the Cubs and our neighbors and<br />
will continue into 2013.<br />
thank you for your help making these efforts possible. We look forward to seeing you<br />
in and around the <strong>com</strong>munity in the year ahead.<br />
