Open Forum

 

Discussion related to purchasing 3 Temporary Mounds for OM, CH and Slabtown LL Fields for ease of Mound Maintenance and also for the ability to utilize the fields for both Softball and Baseball.  Contacting Softball to see if they may be interested in splitting the cost to allow them to use both fields without impacting the playing surface.  Rob Massung will start to request pricing and options.

Discussion related to implementing a VOLUNTEER FEE in 2018.  Lack of Participation from families has increased.  In 2017, we had parents paying people to work their concession stand duties.  Should we implement a fee and reimburse families once they volunteer?  Fee amount was discussed at $20.00.

 

Should we make Coaches Attendance at Board Meetings Mandatory?  Or set a minimum number of meetings needed to attend to coach?

 

Can we set a Meeting Calendar of 12 months and publish?
