especially concerned with the home r)!vtca conditions . In
many cases , the I'lol.e`_3 are ever—incroppinq, and downhill
P:a.Y'e develo'`inn toward the back fencon . Could the pta.t o

areas be dragged and built un?
At the start, of the 1981 oon;_son, we unrocd that the diamond f,,
did not require Timing for each and every gn—me . ):IOwever, it
now a-),)ears that the lines are not re.lai ning clear for each
na= 2 and we hope that thin situation c pn be o nged wherein
the li.minV; is done for every MO -
We
would also like to mention that the Ladies Slow Pitch
League Executive is the medium between the Recreation Committee
and league members. We hope that all future questions or
-problems can be directed through us as the league representatives
alone . Persons other than members of the league Executive
are not actin; in conjunction with the league , therefore not
in the interests of the league .
We thank you for your time in this matter and your continued.
efforts to satisfy the needs of our community.
Yours truly, }}- /r�1 7777
