PAY YOUR 2019 GENERAL MEMBERSHIP FEE
To sign up for membership and pay your $3.00 membership fee, please use the below PayPal link by Saturday, August 31, at 10:00pm CST.
Why the fee? A Regular Member has an important voice in running the league, and Little League Baseball recommends charging a small fee to confirm a person’s commitment to be involved and further the objectives of the league. The fee becomes part of the league’s operating funds to run the league.
