We held elections at our December Board Meeting, and I was disappointed to see that we had no candidate to replace our outgoing secretary, Wendy Ashby. Wendy has done a great job, and has been more than gracious in holding this post for 7 years. I hope someone will contact me to volunteer for this position before our January meeting.

There is a natural cycle to service on the Board, and Board members do tend to move along as their children outgrow UMYA. We've been very fortunate to have some Board members who continue to serve even though their children are no longer active. However, it would be great to see some new faces at the meeting.

We meet the second Tuesday of every month, 7:30 pm at the Upper Milford Twp Bldg. UMYA does great things for the youth of our community, but needs volunteers to keep it running. Please consider participating.

I'd like to thank the Board of Supervisors for approving an allocation to UMYA in the 2010 budget. Because of the generosity of the Township, we are able to provide a basketball program for 100 players, 1st-9th grade, and have been able to trial an indoor soccer program this winter. We would not be able to run these programs without Upper Milford Township's support.

See you at the parks!

Dave
