LETTER FROM ALUMNI PRESIDENT MARK BERNSTEIN

Posted by Bill Carter at Dec 26, 2009 4:00PM PST ( 0 Comments )
Fellow Alumni:
 
I hope this letter finds you all in good health and enjoying the holiday season. Before I go any further, on behalf of the WRLLUAA Board of Directors,  let me wish each of you a healthy, happy and safe holiday season.
 
In August 2009 I had the honor of again being elected your President for the next two years. It is a position I take extremely seriously and thank you all for your confidence. You also bestowed the honor of another term on Vice President, Bill Beebe, Treasurer, Tony Cooper, and Member At Large, Lee Batterman. We welcome our newest elected Board member, Secretary, Geoff Shiu. The Board of Directors look forward to serving this Association for the next two years.
 
For those of you not aware, the Western Region complex is going through the first stages of renovation and we look forward to seeing the results by Tournament time. Weeklong Umpire Schools for 2010 have been cancelled but replaced by numerous Outreach Clinics all over the Western Region. If your area is interested please contact Western Region UIC, and Alumni Member, Bill Carter. Weekend Rules Clinics and Mechanics Clinics remain on schedule and I refer you to the Western Region website for dates.
 
With the Board in place it is now your turn. This Board's committment is to continue to benefit volunteer umpires throughout the Western Region in both baseball and softball. We need your help. Take a second and let us know what you think are good ways for us to accomplish these goals. We need to hear from you. We remain committed to again funding the Cy Livoti Junior Umpire School Scholarships in 2010 and are already receiving applications. We are no stronger than our membership so please get involved; take a second and contact a Board member and let your thoughts be known. We had some great discussion at the Alumni Breakfast and while we had another record turnout, we have over 110 members so there are more thoughts, ideas and great suggestions out there. We may not be able to do everything at once or everything suggested but we would like you to participate. Many of the projects and ideas completed by the Association came from Association members who saw a need. We also hope you will continue to talk about the Association, the good things it is doing for all of the volunteer Western Region umpires and seek to find new members so the Association may grow.
 
We look forward to hearing from you and also are looking forward to another great season of training and games.
 
Mark Bernstein
WRLLUAA-President
