Fwd: Another Field Issue

Commissioners,

 

Michele Harmel (Peters Township Parks & Recreation Director) contacted me today to let me know that she was informed that a PTSA soccer team or teams have used the baseball outfield and infield at Elm Grove Park for soccer practice.  By asking around, I have confirmed that to be the case.

 

As you know,  all PTSA teams have regularly scheduled practice times on the fields for which we are "permitted" (the multi-purpose fields at PW Soccer Complex, PW Old Grasshopper, Elm Grove, Rees Park, and the Rees Park outfield) so I'm surprised a coach or coaches found it necessary to use the Elm Grove baseball field (apparently when we closed soccer fields for wet conditions). 

 

Please remind all Coaches that regular practices (i.e. conducted by a PTSA coach or coaches with a core group of players) are to take place only on the field areas for which PTSA has been issued a permit.  I hope that our Coaches would respect fields used primarily by other PT sports associations and honor them as closed if our own space is closed.  Also, I've learned that the Elm Grove baseball field has been adopted for maintenance by a volunteer that lives nearby ... I can only imagine his upset and frustration to see soccer players on the infield there at a time when the soccer fields were closed.  Sense how one of our own Adopt-a-Field volunteers would feel if, for example, the football association closed its fields and one of their teams showed up on one of our soccer fields to practice when not in use by PTSA.

 

Again, during a period when PTSA is trying vigorously to improve our field conditions in concert with PT Parks & Recreation Maintenance and our "Adopt-a-Field" volunteers, our credibility is harmed if some of our Members don't show respect for other fields while ours are closed.

 

Thanks for your consideration.

Fwd: Picture schedules

U8 Coaches:

Here are the picture schedules for this weekend. A few things that I wanted to note:

* Some of you still need to pick up your team packets. They are still on my front porch.
* Encourage your teams to arrive on-time for the photographs.
* Shelter #1 is the same location as the Soccer picnic. It's the big shelter at the top of the hill by the second playground.
* Shelter #2 is located just below Shelter #1. A soon as you turn left off Merideth Dr shelter #2 is on your right. Not to be confused with the shelter that overlooks the soccer complex (on your left).

Commissioners:

Attached are the schedules for pictures.  Please
forward to your coaches.  As you will notice, our
photographer, Bob Rulli, has two very long days.
Please encourage your coaches to arrive on time so Bob
can stay on schedule. With 112 teams we do not have
any vacant time spots. In addition, please note to
your coaches that Saturdays pictures are at Shelter #2
and Sundays pictures are at Shelter #1.

Thanks,
Gail
