Many will be shocked to find,
When the day of judgment nears,
That there's a special place in Heaven,
Set aside for volunteers.

Furnished with big recliners,
Satin couches and footstools,
Where there are no committee chairmen,
No yard sales or rest area coffee to serve,
No library duty or bulletin assembly,
There will be nothing to print or staple,
Not one thing to fold or mail,
Telephone lists will be outlawed.
But a finger snap will bring
Cool drinks and gourmet dinners
And rare treats fit for a king.

You ask, "Who'll serve these privileged
And work for all they're worth?"
Why, all those who reaped the benefits,
And not once volunteered on Earth.

The EPGSL would not exist without the dedication of its Volunteers!

All board members, coordinators and coaches are Volunteers!

Volunteer Application

In order to ensure our girls are in the safest environment possible, the EPGSL requires that all board members, managers, coaches, and other volunteers fill out a Little League volunteer application/background check form. Failure to fill out the application will disqualify any person wanting to volunteer. Information is not shared with any person but the Little League President.

 

Note: The background check is stricly a criminal check and does not authorize a credit check or any other kind of check.

 

A new background check must be completed EACH YEAR for all managers and coaches.

 

Last year's managers and coaches are not guaranteed teams. 



Please contact Bill Hovanec at hovanec@epgirlssoftball.com if you would like to be sent the ONLINE VOLUNTEER APPLICATION or have any questions or concerns about the process.
