Meetings and Events
May 14
“It’s Spring which means, flowers, warmer weather and baseball,” according to Bob DiBiasio, Vice President of Public Relations for the Cleveland Indians, who will discuss the marketing and communications strategies of the Cleveland Indians during the Lake Communicators luncheon on Wednesday, May 14 at the Lake Metroparks Pine Ridge Country Club, 30601 Ridge Rd. (SR 84), from 11:45 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
DiBiasio will explain the new marketing strategies of the team as they begin another MLB season ––under a new ballpark name, and with a championship-caliber team.
“Every season is unique in its challenges, promotions and media opportunities. There is no ‘most challenging’ part of the season because every day is a new and different challenge,” commented DiBiasio.
DiBiasio is entering his 30th season in Major League Baseball, his 29th with the Indians. A Lakewood, Ohio native, DiBiasio started in 1979 as Assistant Public Relations Director and was named Director of Public Relations the next year. His lone season away from the Tribe was in 1987 when he served as Public Relations Director for the Atlanta Braves.
In 1989, DiBiasio was named the Public Relations Director to Sports Illustrated’s Dream Team. He was honored with the Mel Harder Distinguished Service Award for Community Involvement in 1986 and the recipient of the prestigious Robert O. Fischel Award for Public Relations Excellence in Major League Baseball in 1999.
DiBiasio serves as the President of Cleveland Indians Charities and is an Honorary Member of the Executive Board of the Boys and Girls Clubs of Cleveland.
