Beisbol!(TM), the Hall of Fame-CITGO celebration will be a multi-faceted campaign, highlighted by a pair of dynamic exhibits that will travel throughout the United States beginning in 2006. CITGO is the exclusive national sponsor of Baseball! Beisbol!(TM).... Among other initiatives, the five-year Hall of Fame-CITGO partnership will also include: ...* An exchange program aimed at forging a closer and more productive
  • relationship between curators in Cooperstown and their counterparts at the Caribbean and Latin American halls of fame;
  • * A multi-cultural advisory panel of experts to ensure that partnership initiatives reflect the uniqueness of Latino baseball; and
  • * The translation into Spanish of key Hall of Fame documents for Museum visitors, as well as the Hall's famous plaques on the Hall of Fame's Web site....
