7.
The board agreed to purchase Keith Walter’s fryer
for the sum of $350. Motion made by
Tammy, seconded by Bob. The fryer is
currently in the concession stand at Penn.
8.
Jeff Ebersole requested that Keri Hockenberry be
permitted to serve as a junior assistant on the A’s for her graduation
project. Approved. It was suggested by Steve that something be
put in the by-laws that DAGSA supports this type of thing and to indicate any
requirements that should be met.
9.
Scott Cornelious requested that his ten year old
daughter Sarah who has one year left on the Sweet Peas be permitted to move up
to the Giants in 12 & Under. It was
considered a hardship considering Scott’s work schedule, his desire to continue
coaching the Giants and his oldest daughter playing 14 & under and his son
playing little league. Steve suggested
that something be put in the by-laws outlining a procedure for this sort of
thing to provide support should DAGSA opt to not approve future early move up
requests. Currently there is no
formalized process for making this decision.
10.
Ideas were discussed to solve the concession stand
issue. Timi and Mike made some
suggestions. Consideration will be made
to charging a $30 “work” fee that will be held and returned when a family
completes their obligation to work tournaments and concessions during the
season. DAGSA still would like to host
as many as three tournaments in 2009.
11.
Equipment and keys turn in is scheduled for Saturday
November 1 from 10 – 11 at the large shed beside Penn Small.
12.
There was discussion regarding a different process
to insure that back ground checks are completed and on file for all
coaches. In 2008 there were at least
two teams where none of the coaches had back ground checks on file. It was suggested that DAGSA have the
background checks done through the ASA player and coach registration process.
13.
The meeting was adjourned at 9:15. The next meeting is scheduled for Wednesday
October 15 at 6:30 PM
Respectfully submitted by Stephen Crider
