It’s quite simple. I love this league! Those who have volunteered before me have established and maintained this wonderful league. I would be remiss if I didn’t give back.

I manage the highest level of senior softball in Nebraska
I umpired 8 years; asked 3 years to umpire Worlds and umpired twice

What talents/skills do you possess that will benefit Nebraska Senior Softball?

I have managed teams for 15 years
I was on the Board for 5 years in the early 2010s
Briefly state why you wish to hold an Office/Position on the NSS Board of Directors:
I feel that board members need to meet and engage not only new players but keep in touch with all players in the league. The “youngsters” are the future of the league, but they can learn a lot about the Fun-Fitness-Fellowship the league was founded on by our seasoned veterans. Hopefully, if elected, I will be a board member who will be approachable to discuss input and concerns from all league members. My sincere thanks to all who participate in Nebraska Senior Softball and make it the great league it is.
