ANNUAL SPECIAL EVENTS AND PLAYER FUNDRAISING
Jessica Rains
Player Fundraising Coordinator
McMinnville Grizzly Junior Baseball appreciates all your continued support and volunteering to make JBO a great organization for the kids! Participation fees are paid by each player to JBO to cover the cost to run the program each year. The following are some examples of these costs: Field maintenance, equipment (baseballs, catcher gear, etc), tournament fees, umpires, insurance, etc.
Team-level fundraising (i.e. additional tournaments, quarter-zip team pullovers, end-of-season party/banquets, etc) is separate from annual MJBO events and fundraising. McMinnville Junior Baseball teams are welcome to plan out additional team-level fundraisers. For details, concerns, and questions about MJBO Fundraising, please contact the Player Fundraising Coordinator for additional information.
Our Coaches acknowledge that fundraisers are an integral part of the mission for the organization. As such, MJBO Coaches emphasize the importance of volunteer opportunities and encourage full-participation from McMinnville Junior Baseball Organization parents as instructed by the McMinnville Junior Baseball Organization Fundraising Coordinator.
About McMinnville Junior Baseball Organization (MJBO)
McMinnville Grizzly Junior Baseball is dedicated to the youth of our community, emphasizing the fundamentals of this country’s favorite pastime, through superior instruction, fair play, and team camaraderie, as well as higher levels of competition. MJBO provides opportunities for 3rd through 8th graders to play on a competitive baseball team. The goal of MJBO is to teach kids to be team players, be good sportsman, play hard and most of all have fun while experiencing the game of baseball in a competitive and positive environment.
McMinnville Grizzlies Junior Baseball is an association of the Westside Youth Baseball Association and Junior Baseball Organization of Oregon. All baseball play follows the National Federation of State High School (NFHS) rules. JBO is aligned with Oregon High Schools and provides a local and varied pool of competition with whom we compete and learn. The game is BASEBALL, pure and simple, built on the rules of Oregon High School Baseball and modified to age-appropriate programs. Junior Baseball allows the player to learn the way to play REAL BASEBALL at an early age and continue to develop their skills as they get older.
Without Corporate Sponsorships the McMinnville Grizzly Junior Baseball program costs would be significantly higher for every family!
