Little League umpires needed
Caribou Little League is seeking volunteer umpires for this summer. Umpiring is a great way to give back to the community and it also will count towards a student’s community service graduation requirement. Those who are currently high school freshmen or older are eligible to umpire.
Any interested individuals are asked to attend one of two umpire clinics. They will be held at the Caribou Wellness and Recreation Center Thursday, April 28 at 6:30 p.m. and also on Sunday, May 1 at 2 p.m.
With any questions or for more information, call Arik Jepson at 498-6166 or visit www.cariboulittleleague.org.
