In June, Board members were made aware that the Putnam County Chamber of Commerce and City of Cookeville presented two different proposals requesting an extension to host the BlueCross/BlueShield of Tennessee Football State Championships. This was tabled to allow Board and staff members time to study both proposals.
A decision needs to be made whether or not to extend the contract or put the football state championships back up for bid. This is the last year of the current contract with Cookeville.
23. Basketball Bid Proposals
A letter was sent to cities that have expressed an interest in hosting our Basketball State Championships explaining our bid process. Those cities that have expressed interest in the past are Memphis, Jackson, Clarksville, Martin, Kingsport, Nashville, Murfreesboro, Chattanooga, Knoxville, Cookeville, and Johnson City. Specific information regarding the tournaments will be sent to those cities that notify our office indicating they are interested and would like to bid.
Plans are to accept bid proposals and ask the TSSAA Board of Control to make a decision during our June 2011 Board meeting.
