We will also be holding a meeting for any travel coach interested in coaching next year on Monday July 8^th at the North Carroll Senior Center from 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM.  It is extremely important for you to attend this meeting if you plan on coaching a travel team in 2020. If you cannot attend this meeting please email Ben Lamp (baseball.ben@yahoo.com) and let him know, so he can setup a make-up date?

Manchester Baseball is proud to report that our parents/players have donated 57 lbs of food during our Player Evaluations.  In turn, Manchester Baseball has donated this to the Tree Of Friends Foundation (TOFF).  Thank you for supporting our local food bank.  We plan to have more donation events in the near future.

Carroll County Rec & Parks Background Checks

All volunteers (coaches, assistant coaches and team parents) representing a Carroll County Recreation and Parks sponsored Recreation Council are required to have a background check and must be cleared prior to starting the season. No background check, no volunteerism allowed.

· Once you have completed your background check immediately forward a picture, with name, position, and council information to ccrecvolunteer@ccg.carr.org. This will allow them to create your photo volunteer ID, which MUST be worn at ALL times while volunteering.

· To complete the background check online, go to: https://ssci2000.secure-screening.net/escreening/OApp_LoginEntrance.asp?mode=direct&code=450500

· If you are not wearing your id you will not be allowed on to volunteer. Completed ID's will be mailed to the address on the completed background check.

· For information about the “Carroll County Department Of Rec & Parks Volunteer Background Check Program”, go to: //s3.amazonaws.com/my.llfiles.com/00282620/CCRP_Vol_BGC_Policy_2016.pdf
