Season Update

4/1/2020Read full...

Hi Parents and Friends, 

 

Good morning I hope you are well and staying healthy. Wow, this is a historic time in the history of America and the World. We are all under incredible pressure and stress, unlike ever before in our history. My thoughts and prayers go out to each and every one of you that has been impacted by this terrible virus. I understand many of you have questions about the future and while baseball/softball/tball is not the focus right now, it is something our community looks forward to and hopes to reclaim in the coming months. 

 

To update you all on our status, we are currently in a "wait and see" pattern with both J-Hawks and JAYBA. We are working with our community partners from around the area to determine our next steps. We have worked hard to get the season started and I am not giving up on it easily. We are discussing ways to still play baseball this season. We have discussed a compressed schedule, extending the season, reducing the number of games, and canceling altogether. The LAST option is the LAST option, canceling the season is NOT something we want to do, but for the safety of our families and communities, it may come to that. As of now, we need to wait and see what happens throughout the month of April. If we have to cancel, the Board will convene and we will work on a plan to refund your payments.  

 

In this time of stress and unknown future, it is critically important to listen and adhere to the Federal and State government standards on social distancing and "stay at home". As much as we all want to get out into the community and support the local businesses we need to try extra hard over the next 30 days to reduce the possible impact of COVID 19. Please try to support the local economy as much as possible. Reach out to your neighbors and offer a helping hand. Stay busy with home projects and yard work. Play with your kids, teach them, help them feel at ease with the world in turmoil. Rest assured we will get through this as we have navigated rougher waters in the past. Stay positive and most of all stay healthy. Wash your hands, cover your cough, and stay home if you are sick. I want you all to know JAYBA is here for you and the community. If you need ANYTHING please let us know how we can help. 

 

Thank you, 

Greg Winn

JAYBA Chairman
