Coaches,  We are now halfway through our baseball/softball seasons.  Everything is progressing pretty smoothly minus a few bumps in the road here and there.  We are asking you to  continue to let us know if there is anything that we can help you with or if you need anything.  Please keep in mind that Thomas Morrison is now on board full time.  You may email or call either one of us for questions or concerns.  With this in mind we are asking you for your help in a couple of matters:

 

• The Aycock Recreation Complex is a smoke free and tobacco free facility.  The use of tobacco products is strictly prohibited.  These mean all buildings, ballfields, parking areas and walking trails.  Please help us with this as we have seen firsthand parents, grandparents, and yes even coaches smoking and chewing tobacco.

 

• Please remember, as a Manager/Coach, you not only represent the Henderson-Vance Recreation and Parks Department but the sponsors as well.  We as Mangers/Coaches need to set a good example for the young athletes who are participating in our leagues.  Please watch your language and demeanor at all times, as all players/parents/and other coaches are watching.

 

• Please do not place any pictures of any (individual) participant on any social media outlet (Team pictures are ok.).  No one except the Henderson-Vance Recreation and Parks Department has permission to do so.

 

• Please keep in mind that if Henderson-Vance Recreation and Parks Department has a reasonable suspicion of a volunteer using any kind of illegal substance at any time during the season, we have the right to ask that coach for a drug screening.

 

Once again thanks for all that you do.  If not for volunteers such as yourself our programs would be as great as they are.

Thanks

Steven W. Osborne
