The Dalles Little League is breaking ground on a new 2016 season, so the organization is sending an alert out to all parents and volunteers for Kramer Field to help out with the annual field cleanup day starting at 9 a.m. this Saturday at Kramer Field in The Dalles.
The entire facility, which is located at 945 Walnut Street in The Dalles is in need of a facelift in time for the start of the spring baseball season, so everyone is encouraged to sign up and volunteer their time to the cause.
All parties should be sure to bring shovels, gloves, brooms, rakes, hoes, and any other tools that are appropriate for cleanup and maintenance of fields.
As an extra incentive, TDLL is offering lunch and drinks for all participants who are in attendance this Saturday.
“Volunteering can be a rewarding experience,” said TDLL president Chris Loyd. “It is our hope that you will be able to give a little of your time to help make the upcoming season an enjoyable and memorable one for all.”
Throughout this busy spring season, there are other opportunities available for volunteers in tasks ranging from concession work, keeping scorebooks for their team, umpire duties and any other tasks that are needed to be performed.
Anyone who is interested in any/all of these positions, but did not get a chance to mark the information on their volunteer application, may email the little league offices at tdlittleleague@gmail.com.
There is also an obligation opt-out fee of $25 for any parent not interested in volunteering to help in some capacity.
“As a volunteer organization, TDLL depends on your help,” Loyd continued. “In order to run smoothly and operate successfully, we need every family to volunteer during the upcoming season.”
Bookkeeping and umpire clinics are being organized, and TDLL will soon send out information on those upcoming dates and times for training.
As of now, there are currently some openings for Coach Pitch/Rookie and T-Ball managers.
Anyone who is interested can email the TDLL offices to inquire about the open positions.
All coaches must complete the annual concussion training seminar prior to participation in any practice or game.
The training consists of a brief online video with review questions at the end of each section and a quiz at the end.
The completion certificate must be printed and turned in to TDLL before opening day on April 9.
