HELP KEEP THE TRADITION ALIVE


As the Santa Maria Indians' 65th season draws to a close, we would like to thank all of the Tribes' supporters from around the country for your continued support.


The Indians, as many know, are the longest-running semi-pro baseball team in California and one of only two teams from the Golden State to win the prestigious National Baseball Congress (NBC) Tournament in Wichita, Kansas.


Over the last seven decades, numerous future major leaguers such as Jackie Jensen, Jim Lonborg, Mike Aldrete, Robin Ventura and Ozzie Smith have worn a Santa Maria Indians uniform.


For 47 of the Tribe's 65 years, the team was guided by Clarence "Scoop" Nunes until he passed away in November of 2003. At that time, the future of the club was uncertain at best. Thankfully, in the five seasons since Scoop's death, the community has rallied behind the Big Red and we've made quite a comeback both in the community and on a national level. It is our hope that in the not-too-distant future the Santa Maria Indians will be able to deliver yet another national championship to the Central Coast.


To accomplish this goal, we'll need the assistance of Indian fans, alumni from around the country and, as always, local businesses.


Each and every year, the costs associated with running the ballclub continue to rise. Player housing, meal money, hotels, transportation, equipment, insurance, umpire fees and field rental are just some of the costs associated with our 50+ games every summer.


Any contribution to the program would be very much appreciated and put toward the continued good health of California's oldest and most successful college summer baseball team.


Donations may be made payable to the Santa Maria Indians and mailed to P.O. Box 1166, Santa Maria, CA 93456. Thanks in advance for your generosity and continued support.
