To: Our supportive partners – Essex Town businesses / Office Manager Re: Essex Town Little League Support & Donations Dear Maam or Sir, On behalf of the ETLL board members and all the parents and players, I am writing to inquire about a possible donation in support of the Essex Town Little League Baseball & Softball programs. As a non-profit local organization, our goal is to provide kids from introductory T-ball through the Major league baseball/softball level an opportunity to get out and enjoy Americas favorite past time sport! Our grassroots effort is volunteer based, and functions on the generous support and donations from local businesses such as you. In 2013, Essex Town Baseball hosted on our fields all three rounds of all-star play at the year old baseball major league level. This included District pool play, the District Championship play, and the VT State Championships! With all three tournaments, the boys had along season that extended through summer. The girls year olds made it to the state championship final game, played with a valiant effort, but it was not their year. The 9-10 year old girls earned valuable experience in their play for State championship, which will be put to use this year. In 2014 we look forward to another great year, continuing a tradition of fun and competitive play for returning players, as well as introducing young new players to Little League baseball and softball at the beginning levels. We need your help! Maintaining our fields and providing safe and adequate performing equipment is a priority, and as previously mentioned only happens through the support and donations from local businesses and residents such as you. This year, we are looking to vastly improve the field conditions, purchase nets and screens to update the batting cage to accommodate both baseball and softball, to purchase new fences for the fields, and to install a score board on Softball field C. To make a donation, please contact either Wendy James, or James Austin (Contact information below). We very much appreciate your consideration and time, and thank you for your support. Little League baseball/softball: Character, Courage, Loyalty… Go Essex!
