PLEASE HELP

Parents,


As most of you know, we are trying to raise the money needed to convert two of the “Midget Baseball” fields at Elliott School into U10 fields so we can discontinue using the fields at the Jr. High. This will allow all our HJRB games to be played at a single venue so the U10ers can have access to better parking, full restrooms, the concession stand, and hopefully better fields (with no lacrosse in the outfield). One of the fields may be made into a field that can accommodate additional U12 games also. The infields need to be extended outward and some additional fencing added at a minimum.

I’m really trying to avoid sending home stuff with the kids to sell door to door. Not many people like those. So, what we do need are some volunteers for various money making endeavors. Some have been helping out already in our new Snack Shack – thank you to those folks!! Plus thank you to those that have been patronizing the stand during your son’s games, that helps too.

For the help I need right now: I have committed the HJRB program to provide volunteers for two different weekends for BPA tournaments at the Holt High School. The first one is the weekend of June 12th, for Saturday and Sunday. I’m not sure of the exact times yet but Saturday would be all day from 8am – around 9pm. I need to maintain at least 3-4 adults plus their HJRB players at all times during the tournament. Duties will be selling gate tickets, concession workers, scoreboard operator, and ball field prep between games.

Only about 10% of our parents are active volunteers and those 10% are bearing the entire load. Please step-up and help us make this a better youth baseball program for your kids!!

If you can help out on Saturday June 12 th or Sunday June 13th, please email me how long of a shift you’d be willing to work and which hours you are available.

If your schedule doesn’t work for this weekend, our other weekend is June 26th. Or let me know if you are willing to work at our HJRB Snack Shack and I’ll let you know what days we need help.

THANKS in advance for any help you can offer.
