The season is upon us...

The 2013 season will be here soon.  As you pull into Russell Windsor Field, the grass is freshly mowed, the infield is dragged, the lines are drawn and the kids are all dressed in their brand new uniforms.  You can smell the hot dogs and hamburgers grilling at "Dugout Delights".  You can hear the music playing as we all line up for the opening ceremonies.  Like magic, everything is ready to go.  Well, not quite...

Preparations for the 2013 season began back in December.  The Board of Directors and other volunteers have been working feverishly to make this upcoming season the best ever.  We have so much to look forward to.  Our Juniors division is going to be the best ever and we have added a new division for our players 11 to 13.  We are welcoming our friends from Montgomery County LL and by all accounts, this is shaping up to be a great season.

You can help make it the best ever.  There are so many opportunities for you to help.

  1. Opening Day, the Hit-A-thon and our end of season celebration are all opportunities to help.  Reach out to our volunteer coordinator and ask how you can help.  
  2. Each one of our fields need constant attention.  Can you help?  Sure you can.  Email our field director and let him know you want to help.
  3. Each Little League game can not be played unless we have umpire.  Umpires are as much a part of the game as the kids playing, so we need umpires to help.  Email our umpire in chief and let him know..."I'd love to help".
  4. Do you know how to score a baseball game?  Well now is your chance to learn.  You can be one of our scorekeepers.  Click here to learn how to score a LL game.
  5. Ever had a mom or dad sitting near you that is saying something inappropriate?  We all lose it once in a while.  You could be a culture keeper and help us all keep our cool while watching our kids play.
  6. We need great fans.  Come to a game other than your childs, eat a hot dog and enjoy our kids play...
So as you can see, there are many opportunities to help.  When we come calling, don't just delete the email.  Think about how you can help and make the experience better.

Thanks for reading.
