Parkland High School Baseball

To all, Randy Redman asked me to remind all of you that your sons should of brought home forms recently from the intramural sessions to order 2004 Parkland Baseball clothing being sold by the Booster Club. If you have not seen or received this information or if your sons have been unable to attend because of other athletic commitments still in season, please contact Randy Redman ASAP at 610-391-7420 if you are interested in ordering any items with the order Randy is intending on submitting early next week. If you get the answering machine please leave your name, telephone number and address and your intention to order and Randy will get a form to you immediately with the absolute deadline dates for the order and checks to be received back to him. The Booster Club has certain minimum orders and deadlines to meet to get the clothing back in a timely fashion. This email is being sent via a list of email addresses given to me primarily created from the 2003 booster club list. So if you are aware of others that may have been missed, my apologies, but possibly some of you could forward this email to those you may be aware of including the incoming freshman, any other upperclassmen that are back trying out again and other coaches (Yocum, Merkle, Spadt(s) and Bashore for whom I was not given email addresses) just to be sure most families are covered who may wish to order clothing on this first order. Randy indicated there most likely will be a second order but it may be limited as to what items are available depending on quantities desired. On another equally important matter, the Parkland Baseball Booster Club is planning to conduct a fund raiser/picnic during the season which will be in the form of a Minature Golf Tournament to be held at Putt University on RT 309 in Center Valley on 4/25/04 from 1200 noon to 400pm. This event, as noted, will be held during the season which will hopefully enhance participation of all members and families of both the Varsity and Junior Varsity teams and should provide a great opportunity to meet and greet teammates, familiy members, other Parkland Baseball supporters and coaches as the team pushes toward the end of the regular season and league, district and state playoffs. The Booster Club will be in need of members to head up committees for this event in order for it to be a success. The committees will be discussed at the next Booster Club meeting on March 10, 2004. Volunteers will have the ability to sign up then as well as after the team is selected at the "Meet the Team Pizza Party" on March 24, 2004 at the high school cafeteria. Some preplanning and coordination is presently underway for the Minature Golf Tournament out of neccessity, but a complete plan and financial analysis will be presented at the March 10, 2004 Booster Club meeting at 700pm to be held at the high school which will allow for discussion, revisions and approval by the Booster Club as appropriate. Lastly, the Parkland Baseball website (www.etamz.com/parklandbaseball) will have further updates and information concerning Booster Club activities as well as team information and schedules on a regular basis.

We've said it before and we'll say it again: Our members make the Booster Club what it is. And we are again asking for your help. With the 2004 baseball season quickly looming the booster club is in need of volunteers for the following: 1. Program solicitors: we have done a second mailing to over 75 past advertisers and would like 2 people to follow-up with a phone call. Keep in mind that even the smallest dollar amount can relate to over $1,600 toward putting new cleats on the boys. 2. Barbados fund-raiser: tickets have been sent to all booster club members, with this in mind we need to follow-up on the sale of tickets. This could and should be a very profitable event. 3. Youth night/Senior night: the season may be a few months away however the need for people to organize these very important nights is upon us. If you have a few hours to spare over the next two months we would appreciate your help. 4. Baseball Banquet: this year again Willow Tree is the front runner to host our banquet. With this in mind there is more organizing which needs to be done. The next scheduled Booster Club meeting is Thursday, 1/22/04, at 7:00 p.m. in room D-133 and am confident that together we can come up with solutions. Kindest regards, Eric (Rick) Rosner
