General Election 2022

Hello Steel Lake families,
    We are getting ready to close out our 2022 season and would like to thank all of you for making this year amazing. This brings us to an exciting time of the year for the parents. On September 20th we will be holding our annual General Election. At this board meeting you can help shape the future of our league as we will be voting in the members of the 2022 Steel Lake Little League board. This is a perfect opportunity to get involved and learn about how volunteering benefits all of our kids. Of course, we are excited to be able to hold this meeting in-person once again. We are looking for a possible location that will accommodate all of us safely. I have listed all of the board positions and descriptions below and welcome any questions about them here over email until then. If you don't see a position that fits you, we have members at large opportunities as well that might be just what you're looking for. I will be sending out an update on the location and time as soon as we have that confirmed.
Thank you,
Rhonda Widger
