Cheryl Pritchard-McPherson re: facts
about new Oro-Medonte Minor Baseball
Association.
An overview of the Oro-Medonte Minor Baseball
Association was provided to the Committee and is
appended to these minutes. Ms. Pritchard-McPherson
indicated that approximately 90 children are registered
with this organization to play hardball. A tentative
schedule has been completed encompassing the diamonds
at Hawkestone, Oro Memorial Park and the Lions Diamond.
Ms. Pritchard-McPherson felt that these diamonds are
appropriate for hardball. As the diamond at Craighurst
is under utilized, this location may be available for
play and was acceptable to Ms. Pritchard-McPherson
should it be offered. The municipal liability and the
insurance of the OBA was discussed.
7:55 p.m.
Jim Partridge, Oro-Medonte Minor Ball
Association.
An information package was presented by Mr. Partridge
and is appended to these minutes. Mr. Partridge spoke
to the proposed plans for hardball within this
organization. Approximately 100 children are
registered with this organization to play hardball.
Discussion occurred regarding the options available to
the two organizations being Oro-Medonte Minor Ball and
Oro-Medonte Minor Baseball. As with the previous
deputation, the possibility of play on the Craighurst
diamond was discussed with Mr. Partridge who indicated
that this was an acceptable diamond should it be
available.

I would not have authority to commit the association to any
purchase nor to have the association billed directly by the
supplier except by special consent of the executive.

March 23,
1994
For a Few years I have been a member of the executive of the oro Minor
SoFtball Association. Last year during season and on the tournament day
we heard considerable interest in a minor hardball league. At our annual
meeting in September, Five of us were elected or re-elected to be the
executive of oro Minor Ball. I was subsequently elected chairman.
At our Fall and early winter meetings hardball was on the agenda and we
decided to hold a public meeting to ascertain what interest and support there
was in the township. (See Notice attached.)
When booking the arena For the meeting I learned a~out Cheryl Macpherson's
proposed meeting on January 18th. When I brought this inFormation to the
executive, the decision was made to contact her, to see iF she was interested
in working with us; and Etti Mountain did that. We proceeded with the
understanding that she wanted hardball travelling teams and we were
operating hardball house league. It thereFore, seemed like a perFect Fit.
We prepared registration Forms (copy attached), set Fees, and had 2000
copies made up. We distribute~ them through the schools and did other
advertising. However, aFter the second registration day, at our regularly
scheduled meeting, on Mar. 3 Ms. Macpherson announced she could not, and
would not work with us and she intended to Form her own hardball team.
4IÞwe told Ms. Macpherson we accepted her resignation, thanked her For her help
and said we would continue to oFFer house league hardball, as planned.
Ms. Macpherson's present endeavours to Form house league and travelling
hardball te~m on her own is clearly in conFlict. ~ease notice the name
we decided upon in January oro-Medonte Minor Ball Association or OMMBA.
Her association is now oMMBA too when in January it was oro and District
Hardball Association. Actually her Full name now is Oro-Me90nte Minor
Baseball Assocation. She wants to register at the oro arena at the same
time, on the same date as oro-Medonte Minor Ball Association.
I am here today asking you to prevent this From happening on March 26,1994.
Although I believe Mrs. Broderick has done her best to support our
organization, I am also asking For you, in some manner to oFFicially
endorse our publicly elected volunteer organization oRo-MEooNTE MINOR
BALL ASSoCIAT~oN, that has a goal of being involved with the children
of oro-Medonte township to show them good sportsmanship, values, and skills,
using the medium of a ball diamond; and to have some Fun ile doing this.

Budget
- A small committee met in December 1993 to discuss 1994
capital projects.
- The Chairman of the Oro-Medonte Recreation Committee met
with staff in January, February and March to discuss format
of the budget, and actual operation costs. End result is a
fairer picture of the arena, park, ball diamond and other
parks' actual operating costs.
- Committee will be presented with an approved budget
hopefully in May 1994.
To do:
1.
The Committee will recommend to Council some of the
allocated money for the Community Halls and parks in
the former Medonte. Staff will present requests from
the various Halls and parks, and the playground report,
Fire Chief, Simcoe County Health Inspector reports will
determine some spending of this allocated money.
2.
Hopefully the 1994 Committee will meet in November or
December 1994 to discuss and prioritize various capital
items for 1995.
8.
Support to Local Groups
- This committee has proven to various volunteer groups that
they (the committee) is a support group to
recreation/parks/leisure type committees.
To do:
1.
The Committee hopefully will continue to lend support
to community groups whose mandate centres on recreation
type services to the community.
9.
Programs and Activities Flyer
- Since 1991 (Fall), staff has initiated and advertised
various children, youth, and adult programs.
- There is money allocated in this years' 1994 Budget to
develop a township wide brochure that covers programs,
community groups, special events, etc.
To do:
1.
If the money is approved, staff are willing to initiate
and develop this brochure with assistance from the
Committee. Assistance could be in securing advertising
dollars, program ideas and editing of the material.

Program development for the township needs to have a
higher priority. staff needs to be able to spend more
time on program development, supervision and evaluation
of programs.
COMMENTS
1.
Giving recreation and parks services recognition for
its importance in the "well being" of Oro-Medonte
Township residents is essential. It is hoped this
"importance will be carried" back to Council by our two
Council representatives.
2.
Community Halls should continue to be a priority as it
is hoped by the Community Hall Board Association that
Community Halls once again become a focal point, "a
gathering place" for community people.
3.
staffing requirements must be recognized and addressed
so service can be maintained and increased as needed.
We are understaffed now for the service demand.
4.
The proactive approach by the Committee is positively
accepted by the public and should be continued.
Progress will result!
As a staff person who has the opportunity to work
continually with dedicated caring volunteers, I thank you
for your support, encouragement and expertise.
