Volunteers Needed for 2018 District Minors Tournament
National is excited to host the 9/10 district tournament June 30 – July 8. We are looking forward to seeing some great ball in our park and cheering on our own Minors tournament team!
To make this tournament a success, we will need LOTS of volunteers to help out with the following:
- Park Representative (following a script before each game, answering questions and dealing with issues, general oversight
- Concession (we will need two people to run the grill and two people to serve the counter at all times)
- 50/50 Draw (no children in this role, please)
- Field Prep (raking and spraying down the field as necessary, drawing fresh chalk lines before each game, covering the pitching mound after the final game each day)
- Washroom / Garbage
Please seriously consider lending a hand. The more volunteers we get, the better this event will be!
It is also a bunch of fun and a chance to watch some GREAT baseball!

2018 AGM / Call for new Board Members
We will be having our 2018 AGM on Sunday, June 24, 2018 at high noon in the visitor’s bleachers (or in the boardroom in the clubhouse if the weather is bad) at Jerry Hale Field, 1280 Hillside Avenue, Victoria.
All park parents and any other interested parties are encouraged to attend. We would particularly like to extend an invitation to those interested in serving on the board for 2018/19, as we will be electing the new board for 2019. If you have ideas, time and energy to contribute in the year ahead, we would love to see you there!
Concession Volunteers Needed!
We urgently need volunteers to help in the concession. So why not meet your volunteer requirement by spending an hour or two in the concession during your child’s next game?
We’re not asking for a major time commitment. If everyone signed up for just one shift, we would have the whole season covered!
No experience? No problem! If you can make change for a five dollar bill, you’re qualified to work the counter, and if you have ever put a hamburger on the barbecue, you’re qualified to work the grill! (Not every volunteer needs to have FOODSAFE certification.)
Come enjoy the best seat in the house (there’s a view over the umpire’s shoulder!) and help support our park!
