The Town of Salem will be holding a Halloween event from 4:30-6 on Tuesday 10/27, with a rain date of Thursday 10/29.  Details for the event can be found here: https://www.townofsalemnh.org/recreation-division/pages/2020-halloween-event-costume-contest

Salem Youth Baseball will be hosting one of the drive by locations at Michele Park.  We plan to have goodie bags available for our visitors and would like to make it as festive as possible around the area.  This is where we need your help.  We are looking for people to help set up the area, bring decorations that we can use for the event and be around during the event to help....costumes encouraged!

If anyone is interested in helping us out please respond to this email and let us know!

Thank you,

Salem Youth Baseball Board of Directors

Due to the rain we are cancelling all baseball activities for Saturday 10/17.

Thank you

To all members of Salem Youth Baseball,

Our league will hold 2021 Executive Board elections at the October meeting. This meeting will be held on Thursday, October 29th.  Per the Salem Youth Baseball Constitution to be considered for a Board position one must be an Active Regular Member:  Regular members shall be made up of the league officers, managers, coaches, plus any other person who is making a significant contribution of time to the league and has been given approval to vote by the Board of Directors.  Individuals convicted of a felony or any sexual assault or any crimes against children shall be ineligible to be a Regular Member of Salem Youth Baseball.

In order to run for a position on the Executive board, please send a note of interest along with which position on the Executive Board you are interested in to Sean Conway(conweigh77@yahoo.com) & Ashlee Stevens(astevens202@aol.com) by 5pm on Friday, October 23rd.

Executive Board Members, 7 total:

• President
• Vice President Baseball
• Vice President Treasury & Administration
• Vice President Challenger
• Secretary
• Player Agent
• Executive Advisor

Like all Little League programs, Salem Youth Baseball operates thanks to dozens of volunteers who dedicate hundreds of hours each calendar year……Volunteers like you. In 2021 we intend to have many opportunities for parents to volunteer throughout the year – we would also like to ask for volunteers to help fill the additional Board of Directors positions.  The Board of Directors of Salem Youth Baseball shall be nominated by the President for one year and elected by a majority vote of all Executive Board members present.  This will also be determined at our meeting on 10/29.

Board of Directors (15 Total):

• Blockhouse Director
• Summer Tournament Director
• Information Officer
• Equipment Director
• Safety Director
• Umpire in Chief
• Babe Ruth Director
• Majors Director
• AAA Director
• AA Director
• Tee Ball Director
• Fundraising Director
• Fall Ball Director
• Field Maintenance Director
• Coaching Coordinator

If interested in being considered for one of the above 15 positions on the SYB Board of Directors please send a notice of interest to Sean Conway(conweigh77@yahoo.com) & Ashlee Stevens(astevens202@aol.com) by 5pm on Friday October 23rd.  

The board officially intends to meet once per month and board meetings typically last for 1.5 – 2 hours. In the months leading up to the start of the seasons we often need to hold ad hoc meetings to discuss preparation details. The amount of time board members spend working on league matters in between meetings depends on the position and individual motivation. Some positions have peaks during the year where a significant amount of time is required while others retain a more intense commitment the entire year.  The term of each Board Member is for one year from 11/1/20 thru 10/31/21.

Salem Youth Baseball will evolve and improve with new ideas from your fresh voices. 

Thank you,

Salem Youth Baseball Board of Directors
