 PRESIDENT'S GREETING

To The Eastern Little League Family:

On behalf of the 2010 Board of Directors, I want to say thank you for allowing us to be part of something special.

Eastern Little League is truly a special league and very fortunate to have the support of so many dedicated parents, players and volunteers.  Thanks solely to your efforts, the league has experienced unprecedented growth in recent years.

Thanks also to the outgoing board members.  Last season saw a tremendous number of improvements to the fields and facilities due to their hard work and dedication.

I've always felt that if our parents and children look back on their little league experience with fond memories, we've done our job.  Thanks to all of you for making this happen

- Van Sarantis
