FROM
THE DESK OF THE PRESIDENT
(Delivered on
Opening Day.)
Good morning and welcome to the 50th
Anniversary of the Charter of Southern Division. Last year at the beginning of a
new millennium we looked to the future. Today, we look to our past and honor the
founding fathers of the Southern and Delawanna Divisions. Although I don't know
many of these honorees personally, I do know what they stood for; patience,
diligence, and dedication to the boys and girls of the Divisions. I believe that
if we follow the foundation that these people have set forth this Division will
continue to flourish for a long time.
We must remember that this game of baseball is just that, a game, and that it is
for our children.
At this time I would like to thank the outgoing Executive Board members for
their dedication, leadership, and generous gift of time:
Vice President - Nick Benigno
Treasurer - Bill Freeswick
Player Agent - Jesse Monzo
Thank you one and all. Let's make it a great season!
