1. Don't expect an instant fix (not that you actually are), look long term - think about both the urgent & the 5 years out stuff. 2. Plant the seeds for a successful handoff once your kid is done with the program. One or 2 new board members per year is a good way to get fresh energy, fresh ideas & not relying on the same people year after year. 3. Long range maintenance of facilities like banners & advertising is a good idea... as in your public radio station would rather have 500 people all guaranteeing $ 10 / month for 3 years vs. 250 people kicking $ 20 one time. 4. Use your 501©3 to the best capabilities & maybe do that raffle with a # 1, 2 & 3 place win. 5. Do y'all have a snack bar? Look over the sundries being sold. Adjust if needed. Bump prices by .25 per hot dog, limit condiment freebies per transaction. - No snack bar? Get 1 or 2 food trucks to show up & charge $ 100 per full day onsite, etc. 6. Look to other area baseball leagues & see what the successful ones are doing. Have conversations with them about how they operate, what has worked, what failed, what was ...meh... & try to duplicate success. 7. Lastly, try to stop asking for a show of hands on "who can do ____ , we need someone to _____ ..." instead, approach ONE person or set of mom & dad, & ask them directly to do _____ task. Even if it is "Hey, can you bring 3 coolers of bottled water next Saturday as a donation?" & then another 3 parents "Would you sell iced bottles of water for a 1½ hour run on ___ weekend?" "Hey, could you rake the infield clay between games & line the baselines / batters box between this one game?", etc. Good luck. Sent from my SM-A326U1 using Tapatalk
