Registrations and Other Happenings

It has been a while since my last post. Been busy with my day job and Pony League stuff. The first two registration days went great. Turnout was better than expected. We have one more day of Registration coming up this Saturday, so anyone out there who has kids that want to play make sure they get registered no later than March 22nd.

After the March 14th registration day the board members will be getting together and begin putting teams together. We will accept registrations up till March 22nd. After that there will be a $10 fee added onto the registration fee. If you are mailing your registration to us make sure you get it mailed by the 22nd. We will be going by the post date of the letter to determine if it is after the cutoff date.

We also discussed our plan to purchase some much needed equipment. I will be working on a check-off form that coaches can use to determine equipment that needs to be replaced. At the same time we are discussing what we need to do to make sure we have the funds available to purchase this equipment without putting us in a dangerous position. The dangerous position I mentioned is that we need to keep so much in funds available for emergencies (typically flooding of baseball fields). We will try our best to replace what we can.

Mark is also working on this years shirts and hats. There will definitely be changes this year, but we are still trying to figure what changes we can afford. Once we get more set-in-stone details I will let everyone know.

Our sponsors are starting to send in their money. So far we have 10 sponsors respond who sponsored last year and two new ones who want in if there is an opening. If you or anyone you know would like to be a sponsor please contact as.

We are still working on getting the bank accounts moved over to the new board. Chris and I have been slowly plugging away at this. I think we should have it done very soon.

I am still working on the permit we need for the use of the fields behind Green Gables. We are waiting to get the new insurance info, then we can finally submit the permit. Mark is working on the insurance information and it is moving along and on schedule.

I am sure there is more that I am missing and if I remember it I will make another post. This blog entry is seeming more like a newsletter than a blog entry. Anyway, keep watching for further updates.
