Help shape Parkside's future - join the Board!

Hello Parkside Fall Ball Families,

We’ve reached the end of our Fall Baseball season and we hope your player had a fantastic experience. Whether they were getting their first taste of Minors-level or turning double plays in the Majors, we loved seeing everyone out on the field!

As we start planning for our Spring 2026 season, we’re looking for a few more people to join the Parkside Little League Board of Directors. The board is an all-volunteer body, that keeps our league running — organizing teams, planning events, maintaining fields, and making sure every kid has a fun, safe season.

The League is in a great position and primed for future growth. We are financially sustainable, have great community partners, and have seen solid growth in participation. And' we’ve got big plans for the future – we just need some passionate people to help us reach our full potential.

We have a few leadership positions where there is urgent need for support

  • Treasurer: Are you a numbers person? The treasurer, in collaboration with the League Co-Presidents, helps manage the budget, record revenue, pay vendors and file taxes. (Estimated work per month: ~5 hours)
  • Equipment Manager: Help inventory the gear, purchase new equipment, and make sure our teams have everything they need to compete. (Estimated work per month: ~5 hours–mostly in March/April and August/September)
  • Safety Manager: Makes sure that our teams are equipped with first aid supplies and that coaches have the necessary safety trainings (Estimated work per month: ~3 hours)
  • Communications, Marketing & Information Officer: Coordinates league-wide communication, creating simple digital assets using Canva templates to keep families informed and engaged. (Estimated work per month: ~4 hours)

While it’s not a a leadership role, we’re also seeking:

  • Volunteer Photographer(s): Capture the spirit of Parkside throughout the season — taking photos (and short videos, if possible) at games, practices, and events. (Estimated work per month: ~3 hours)

If you’re interested (or even just curious) please respond to this email and we’ll send you details. Or better yet, join us at our next board meeting to see what it’s like.

Let’s keep the Parkside spirit going strong into next season — we’d love to have you on the team!

Thank you for all you do to support Parkside Little League.

Warm regards,

Jessica Kinglsey & Ben Forstag
Co-Presidents
