Dear Sprague Little League families,
I wanted to inform you of a Salem Keizer School District requirement for this coming Spring season. The School District requires that we verify that any volunteers who are on the field have been vaccinated for Covid or have submitted paperwork to Sprague LL for a religious or medical exemption. While this is a situation that may change in the future, this is a current requirement of SKSD. Although I and our Board of Directors all feel strongly that our League should not be placed in the position of doing this, it is a requirement that has been placed upon us by SKSD and we simply have no option as we use District facilities for our practices and games.
This is a requirement for volunteers who are managing, coaching, concession workers or team parents; anyone who is volunteering on the fields. It does not apply to spectators. Attached is the SKSD form that I as president of Sprague LL was required to sign in order to submit our annual request for access to SKSD fields. For all volunteers, you will need to upload either proof of vaccination or one of the religious or medical forms (see links below) before you can work as a volunteer. If using the medical exemption form, you must have your medical provider complete the form.
Please let me know if you have any questions; we cannot change this requirement nor grant any type of waiver; if you want to volunteer this season and help the kids you will need to do this.
Thank you,
Kevin Lafky
President, Sprague Little League
