Concession Stand Family Responsibility
Concession Stand-
The success of our concession stand is based purely on the ability to keep it open on a constant basis during our season. This is strictly run by our parent base. Many surrounding towns have added a 1 time family requirement to the concession stand to ensure it being open.
Every Baseball family will be responsible for ‘1’ 2 hour shift in the concession stand in 2012.
The alphabetical schedule will be posted at the concession stand and emailed to every parent. If you are not available on your scheduled shift you are responsible to find a replacement or swap with another parent. Please help us keep our Concession Stand a success so we can keep our Baseball fees lower than any other surrounding Towns.
Thanks for your help.

10 Points for Parents
1. CHEER, don't SNEER! Only positive words should come out of your mouth during a game. There is simply no place for negative comments or criticism.
2. WALK before you SQUAWK. If you feel a sudden urge to yell at the coach or the ref, take a walk and cool off before you say something that will embarrass you - or your child.
3. A YELL won't make the team JELL. Don't bellow instructions to your child from the sideline. It's boorish and your kid can't hear a word you're saying, anyway!
4. Don't sell them SHORT, be a SPORT. If the opposing team has played well, give them a pat on the back. Nothing makes a kid feel more special than when a parent from the opposing team tells him how well he played.
5. Don't point and BLAME when they lose a GAME. When your child's team loses, don't blame it on a bad call, a teammate's error, or anything else. How will your child learn to accept responsibility if you don't?
6. Give 'em a SMILE - not BILE. Kids always respond to the coach or parent who smiles - not to the adult who criticizes or scowls. Besides, your child wants to see you having fun.
7. RAISE with PRAISE. That's right, the kids will "raise" their game and their efforts if you praise them. Use any achievement as an excuse for a compliment. They want to believe in themselves. And you can help them.
8. For Pete's SAKE, give the ump a BREAK! Remember, most of the umpires and referees are volunteers donating their time to your kids. And accept it: "Bad" calls are part of sports.
9. PARALYSIS by ANALYSIS. Avoid replaying the game in the family station wagon on the drive home. If your kid brings the game up, fine. But chances are it's about the last thing he wants to talk about.
10. This I BESEECH, practice what you PREACH. With too many pro athletes talking trash and misbehaving, parents have to work extra hard to teach kids fair play. Make sure your own sportsmanship is flawless. You're the most important role models kids have!
