The snow could not stop us.

Last night we had choir rehearsal despite the snow flakes that were falling outside. We shortened things up so those who came out could get home before it got too bad. Every week the choir rehearses the anthem for Sunday and works on pieces for the coming weeks. For example we are already working on the pieces for Palm Sunday and Easter. We run through them and then begin polishing as we get closer to singing them on a particular Sunday.

Last night we rehearsed and were out the door at 7:30 p.m. I stayed after the rehearsal because we were hosting a meeting of the Church softball league upstairs. President George Rapoza asked if he could meet at our church this year. I told him we would be glad to do it.

It was a good meeting. We talked about this season and some of the changes we'd like to make. After two years of controversy over the play-offs, I suggested we put more emphasis on the regular season and de-emphasize the play-offs. After a lot of discussion we came up with the idea to divide the league into two divisions and play 23 games. Then let the top team in each division play two of three for a league championship.

We also suggested having the banquet at the end of August so that it will fall much closer to the end of the season. Two months is just too long. Everyone loses interest. Well stay tuned.

We will begin to put together our roster for the 2010 season. Hopefully most of the team from last year will be back.

The meeting ended and at 8:30 I was home and out of the snow.
