Parkland High School Baseball

FROM: PARKLAND BASEBALL BOOSTER CLUB BOARD IMMEDIATE ATTENTION!! Congratulations to all Varsity and Junior Varsity players and their families. We extend a special welcome to all families new to the Parkland Baseball experience. The coaches and our sons have told us how competitive the try-outs were and we are all fortunate to be a part of what we all believe will be a great 2004 Baseball season! The season opened with the first games on Saturday so we are already in full swing and need help from all families to meet the Booster club goals for 2004. In the next few days, we need a big push for sponsorship for the Mini-Golf fund-raising event and the Baseball Program Ads. Over $4,000 has been committed by sponsors thru the efforts of only 4 or 5 individuals but the budget expenses exceed that amount. To name just a few of the expenses, the Booster Club provides a meal for both Varsity and JV players for all away games, Gatorade for all games, spikes for all players, a banquet at the end of the season with gift for the Seniors and sponsors a Youth Night for all young players who are in the Parkland District. Keep in mind the deadline of 3/31/04! Here's what we need from each of you: 1) Join the Booster club if you have not already done so. Family Membership dues are only $20! 2) Solicit at least one major fund-raising sponsor (info can be found in the packet given at the Meet the Coaches and Players event) or solicit at least one program ad from a business person you know. The deadline to fax or email ad info is 3/31/04 so that we can have programs at home games beginning April 5th. 3) Complete and request an ad or fan lines to be included in the baseball program recognizing your son or group of players. Deadline 3/31/04. 4) Clothing Orders - last chance to order hoodies, t-shirts, sweatshirts or shorts with the Parkland Baseball logo. Please visit the website for the order form - www.eteamz.com/parklandbaseball/handouts/ Deadline 3/31/04 5) Volunteer your time - we still have openings to be filled by parents to work the Coke Wagon at home games and committees that need volunteer help.
