Still Collecting

Ed, on Saturday I was at a local liquor store in Hamilton Township. When I came outside there was a father and his kid out there collecting for the local township Little League. I would really like to know why they are collecting now since the season has been over for more than three weeks. When my kid was involved in Little League we collected well before the start of the season started and there were usually a bunch of dads and kids out there. I ain’t trying to be smart, I just really want to know. I gave them a dollar. I don’t mind them collecting; the Little League does good work. I just really want to know, are they going to be collecting up until Christmas or what?

Don’t think of it as postseason collection. They’re starting early for next year. Or they’re scamming you and that kid doesn’t even play Little League. —Ed. Note

I wanted to let you know that Little League participates in "Fall Ball". In District 12 fall ball is more of an instructional league, than competitive. It gives players an opportunity to work on their skills. The teams travel to play other teams within their district. With Fall Ball very often there are no team sponsors, but still a number of costs that are involved with running the games. Thank you for contributing!

This is in response to the blog regarding the baseball league still collecting. I guess it's better than the kids required to sell weekly football polls to support the local A's travel baseball league. Isn't the Hamilton YMCA associated with this league?
