Hey everyone, thank you to all the players and families that participated in our program this past season, it is incredible to think we have another Spring Season just about in the books and if I may say so another very successful season at that!  Congratulations to all the players, we hope that you learned a little bit more about the game this year and certainly improved your skills.  Above all though we want to ensure your experience was a positive one and that you had fun participating in Wilton Youth Baseball.  By now you should have received an evaluation form from your child's coach. If you do not have one please stop by the concession to pick one up. We are asking that you take a moment to complete this form and drop it off at the concession stand and I would like to thank you in advance for doing so. With any program, feedback good or bad, is essential to keeping it successful. Bottom-line, you are our customers and your comments are taken very seriously in hopes of continuing to make our program better.

Also at this time I would like to bring your attention to our need for new board members going into next season.  Wilton Youth Baseball is an organization based on community, is always looking for responsible and enthusiastic individuals to support and coordinate events and activities.  The reward for all volunteers is not only helping to build a better community based program, but watching the children enjoy the experience of participating in a first rate program.

Each fall individuals are elected as board members who will represent the league in the coming year.  The positions are open to any member of the Wilton Youth Baseball community, which includes both the Cal Ripken and Babe Ruth divisions.  The hope of the current board is to bring new individuals on for the 2009 - 2010 board as there will be a few departures as the end of this season. 

Over to the right here on the Website there is a link that will give you a description of all the board positions, please take a moment to review and see what might be a good fit for you. After reading over the list, please think about the various opportunities available and consider nominating yourself for a board position.  Board members are active in all aspects of the organization from registration, opening day ceremonies, and tournaments.  Some positions are perfect for two individuals – so if you think it might be overwhelming find someone to work with you and nominate both of you.  (The more people involved the better!)

 If you are interested in one of the board positions, please Kim Coons, at kcoons3@nycap.rr.com by September 18th.  Please provide your contact information and the position that you are interested in.  Voting will be done at the next board meeting on Thursday, October 1 at 6:30.  As always, WYB board meetings are open to the public and are announced on the webpage at www.wiltonyouthbaseball.org.  If you have any questions please feel free to contact me by email (peterhart@nycap.rr.com).

Thank you,
Peter Hart
