District 47 Presidents, Players, and Families,

District 47 has become a powerhouse in the north state, and not only on the ball field. Together, we have shown the other districts and their leagues how to "Respect the Game", along with all that entails.  We are grateful to all of you for that accomplishment.

Carol and I have decided that it is time to call an end to our Little League career. It has been a pleasure to have served this wonderful community.  When we moved here 11 years ago, we never dreamed that we would find such warm and welcoming people, and that we would feel so at home.

We have always found that Little League, and the many lessons and opportunities the game brings, has been a wonderful stepping stone for children.  We have watched those children that we coached our first season here become young adults. We remember the miracle of a first catch, a first hit, or the momentous first slide.  And we have all seen that child that lacks confidence make the final play in a critical game.  We will miss this.

Carol and I will look forward to dropping by ball games as our schedules allow, while finally building the mountain cabin that we have been talking about for years. We will also take a vacation here and there, and not always in August after the dust of the infield finally settles.

Holding this position has been a true pleasure, and we know that you will be in great hands with our successor, who will be voted in at the Sept, 2008 meeting. The only requirements are that they live in the district, that they have been a President of a Little League, and that they be nominated by a current League President. Please begin thinking of who you would like to nominate to lead this wonderful organization.

With warm wishes for the success of your leagues,

Todd and Carol
