2022 Meeting Minutes
Brian McCall calls the meeting to order 11:10am 3/6/2022. He welcomes everyone and thanks them and coaches for showing up. Tells everyone Pig Roast will be July 16th this year.
Brian talks about Wall of Fame and to get someone put in they must submit it to Dave Miller or someone on the Wall of frame board.
UIC Gabe say’s it was a hard decision to return as UIC this year because of how hard it is to find umps. Brandon and Etter will be replacing Keith and Rob. Thanks, Andrew for all his help.
Brandon stated that we ran last year at a $2500 deficit. We started 2021 with $4770 and ended with $2246. At that rate we would finish 2022 -$315. That is why we had to raise the players fee and how important it is for fund raising. Everything is more expensive even the balls we purchase.
Andrew said that the hats in pretty good shape and that a lot of players came out of the hat last year. 2nd hat is started.
Brian and Richard talked about the 2022 schedule.
Pig Roast date July 16th and the All Star game is the 24th. He also talked fund raising and doing 50/50 at the games this year and finding a designated person to do it. Still need to find a place for the year end banquet. Golf outing TBD.
