Attention:
Mr. Ralph Holt.

Dear Mr. Holt:
I understand that Don Ryder has recently resigned from
the Recreation Commission, creating a vacancy. I would like
to apply to fill this position due to my involvement with the
Wappinger United Soccer Club.
Since 1991, I have been the Senior Age Group Director of
this club. This position includes responsibility for the age
groups ranging from Under 12 through Under 19. These teams
all play inter-town and I am responsible for interacting and
schedul i ng wi th the "sen i ell'"" Cloge l;)rOup<:; II f Iroom POUI;;)!"o, keeps:i e,
East Fishkill, LaGrange, Hyde Park, Rhinebeck, and as of this
season, Red Hook.
My interests in the town recreation programs are quite
diversified, although my main involvement now is with soccer.
I have, in the past, been quite involved with the Town of
Wappinger Little League where my 3 children still play ball.
My children have also played CYO basketball for many years.
My daughter was a Pop Warner cheerleader for two seasons.
I spent three years involved with the Myers Corners Players
at the elementary school. Two of my children have enjoyed
the summer playground in the past.
I feel that due to my diversified experiences with the
various programs and my deep involvement with t.he soccer club
I may be able to offer my assistance as you see fit.
Thank you for your consideration.
Yours tl~u.l v
