**New Board Members Needed!!!!

Our league started in 2004 by a group of 5-6 really dedicated volunteers.  By 2005, that group had grown to 9 members.  For the last 4 years, these 9 members have carried the brunt of the administrative load for West Plains LL.  In that time, we have had a various members step in and out of rolls on the board, and our league could not have survived without them, but the majority of the load has been carried by these 9 people. 

Unfortunately, we are reaching a time when these 9 people cannot continue to carry the load for the league.  Most have kids that are now leaving the league and moving up to the high school level, and others are just plain wore out. 

Our league has grown from 330 players the first year to 575 last year, and in that time, our board has pretty much stayed the same.

This is being written to try to recruit help for our board.  Without continuous parent involvement, WPLL does face a much more disorganized future, and even failure.  Our board members do not want to see this happen, but at the same time we have sacrificed our lives and family for the past 5 years and do need to have some time to relax and enjoy our success.

Our board members are not looking to abandon posts, but instead are looking to share the load and train the future leaders of our league.  If you visit the West Plains Little League Web site and look at our board minutes, you can see that our meetings have gotten shorter and less frequent as we have gotten better at running the league.

Most positions on the board require 20-30 hours a year.  We are hoping that we can find at least 10 people out of our 400+ parents in our league to step up and help share the load.

Please contact Adam Smith 863-3052 if you are interested in helping us bring baseball to the West Plains.

He Is Just a Little Boy
He stands at the plate with his heart pounding fast.
The bases are loaded, the die has been cast.
Mom and Dad cannot help him, he stand all alone.
A hit at this moment would send the team home.
The ball meets the plate, he swings and he misses.
There's a groan from the crowd, with some boos and hisses.
A thoughtless voice cries, "Strike out the bum"
Tears fill his eyes, the game's no longer fun.
So open your heart and give him a break,
For it's moments like this, a man you can make.
Please keep this in mind, when you hear someone forget,
he is just a little boy, and not a man yet.
