Frosty's SLL Fundraiser
  Christmas Tree Fundraiser

Need a Christmas tree? Frosty's Forest Christmas tree lot at the Chevy
Dealership in Foothill Ranch (at Auto Center and Town Center Drive) will
donate 10% of the your purchase to our league. For them to make the
donation, print and bring this coupon to the lot. Or you can pick up this
coupon at Saturday's clinic and see one of their beautiful freshly cut
trees.  Click on the image for a larger version (in a new window).
 


It's your league.  Volunteer!

We depend on volunteers to help us keep our fees low.  Other organizations pay for services like field maintenance, trash, and umpires, but they have to pass these costs
 onto the members through higher fees.  We also need help with fundraising and sponsorship, which also helps us keep fees low.
To help out with these and other areas, please e-mail the League President .




CHAMPIONS!
 
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL OF THE PLAYERS, COACHES, AND PARENTS OF THE
SENIOR ALL-STARS FOR YOUR HARD WORK AND DEDICATION THIS SEASON!

Dogs:
Please remember that dogs are not permitted at our game or practice fields. This is per SVUSD regulations. Please leave your pets at home. Please make sure any visitors you invite to the field are aware of this also.

Parking:
Please be advised that the league has received several complaints from the residents around our fields regarding speeding and parking. Please remember that our fields are located in a neighborhood and abide by the speed limit. Also, OCSD has been ticketing cars that are parked blocking driveways or too close to corners or fire hydrants. Cars need to be parked fifteen (15) feet back from corners and fire hydrants and cannot block driveways even by a few inches.



Candid Team Photos:
Please be taking candid photos of your players for the yearbook. A box has been set up in the snack bar for photos to be turned in. Please put the team name and division on the back of the photo. Deadline for photos to be turned in will be end of March. Dug Out Club and submissions for the Farewell Page are also due then.

Keep Saddleback LL Clean

Saddleback Little League


 


Recycling: Receptacles for plastic bottles and aluminum cans are located at all of the fields at Aliso Elementary School. Parents and players please use them. The League can receive a $ignificant amount of income from our recycling effort$.
     I have a small group of very hard working volunteers helping collect plastic bottles and aluminum cans and turning them in for ca$h for the league. Help us out by putting all of the plastic bottles and aluminum cans in the recycling receptacles. It is not pleasant to be elbow deep into a waste can pulling out recyclables. Please be thoughtful of those who are working so hard to help this league and our environment. The containers for plastic and aluminum are located right next to the trash cans so there is no excuse for not helping out.


Sunflower Seeds:  Please contain your sunflower seeds in a cup or something similar and put them in the trash can at your field. If you choose to not do this, I will be showing you where you can find a broom that you can use to clean up after yourself. The major bleachers were covered in seed shells after this past Saturday's games. It takes a significant amount of time to clean up the bleacher area. Please be responsible for your own trash. Our league is responsible for cleaning up the trash including all of the sunflower seed shells at our fields. Cleaning up the shells is an unpleasant job, so please do your part.


Trash Pickup : One last reminder is about general trash pick up. Please remind everyone to be diligent in keeping the trash picked up. A typical Saturday generates a large quantity of trash. Not all of it is getting into the league waste cans. Please do your part in helping to keep the school and fields clean. This means we need to go through the playground areas where your children play while their brother or sisters game is being played. This means that the players whose game is over and play out on the T-ball field or other areas of the school must pick up after themselves and not leave a mess behind. This means that teams should go through the dugout areas at the end of their game and leave the dugout as clean as possible. (Several dugouts had quite a bit of trash left behind this week.) It is up to all of us to keep the home of Saddleback Little League looking good. Please try to do your part, even if it means picking trash up that was left behind by someone not as thoughtful as yourself.


Thank you for your support,


Ken Bodrogi
