Board Minutes – 08/17/2009

LOLLL Board Meeting, Monday, 8/17/2009, 7:00 PM

All members were present except for Debbie Felts, Russ Holland, and Dave Redman.

Fall registration numbers are close to last year’s.  So far, we have about 600 players signed up. 

Concession Cmte. Update:  We renewed our contract with the Slush Puppy company.  A representative from Pepsi presented the pros and cons as to bottles vs. fountain drinks.  Due to ease of operation, we are leaning towards selling bottles.  We have many parents who have heard that we are going the “all-volunteer” way in the concession stand and most have given positive feedback.  We will be developing a way for volunteers to sign-up.  We are also recruiting area school kids who need to earn their service hours.

Manager Selection Cmte. Update:   Dennis has completed the background checks with no negative results.  Chosen for managers (so far) are Greg Nadeau, Kim Stinger, Steve Ramsey, Kim Herrmann, Daniel Broderick, David Culver, Sean Christie, Chris Cotogno, Mike Piltaver, Bryan Irvin, Jeffrey Diokas, Jesus Leal, Craig Truso, Steve Jones, Jay Black, Andy Winspear, Matthew Marzullo, Brent Williams, Anthony Haught, Dave Smith, Jeff Reynolds, Robert Forgas, Chris Lockler, Russ Holland, Jack Kovach, Bryan Carroll, Bill Baskind, Gabe Baez, Noel Alfanador, Charles Bennett,  Mike Gray, Anthony Politano, Jay Dusek, Shane Coughlin, Bob Armstrong, Frank Hegedus, Scott Ward, Anthony Saccomanno, Chris Schmelter, Rob Robinson, Jason Petry, Julie Ketterer, Ray Meunier, Fred Holtz, Jack Knowles, Terry Boulden, Gary Gwinn, and Craig Custer. These choices were made based upon factors such as the individual applicant’s baseball/softball knowledge, temperament, control, and communication skills.
Uniform Cmte. Update:  We have received interest from three uniform companies who are interested in supplying our fall uniforms.  Details are listed on our website.
