Thanksgiving Update 2014

E-mail Print PDF
Fellow Lifeguards,

A Beach Representative meeting was held on November 18th, 2014.  At this meeting several questions were asked as to where we stand with our 2% retro pay from this year as well as the Deficit Reduction Program (DRP) money taken out of our paychecks.  We were told that these questions should be answered by the next New York State Lifeguard Corps (NYSLC) meeting in December.  Apparently, there have been problems with the calibration of the paychecks in Albany.  It is a statewide problem that the NYSLC is working on.  Our parent union, United University Professions (UUP) is pressuring New York State for answers as well.
I have also asked the NYSLC representatives from the JBLC Chapter to answer certain questions regarding our unions dues:

1. What is the projected amount our dues will go up per pay period this coming season?
2. Disclosure of the financial statements for the year ending in September 2014 for the NYSLC.
3. If there is a surplus of money, what will it be used for?
4. Is there a maximum of surplus money to be held in the NYSLC treasury?

Hopefully we will have answers by our next Beach Representative meeting that will be held on Wednesday, December 17th, 2014 at 7:00 PM at the NYSUT Headquarters located 1000 Woodbury Rd., Woodbury NY 11797 - 2nd Floor.

PARENT INVOLVEMENT
Your involvement is critical to the success of the competition team. In addition to all the things you do to enable your child to participate on the team, the team needs your help. We need parents to help with team tryouts (timing and recording of finish results), transportation of
equipment (can buoys and Bennett Comp Paddle Boards), assistance at competitions and also for some fund raising to help make sure our team has the right equipment to compete at peak performance. Please go to the Parent Volunteer link below and sign up to do your part to help with the team organization. All help will be greatly appreciated.

PARENT COMMITTEE
New in 2012 was the formation of the Jr Lfgd Comp Team Parent Committee to help relieve the coaches of the administrative burden that comes with running a team. This allows the coaches to concentrate on skill development during training sessions. The Parent Committee will work behind the scenes to support the team’s infrastructure. For example, ordering team uniforms, maintaining the database of team members, communications, organizing volunteers, fundraising, etc. Please let someone on the parent committee know if you are interested in helping the committee.
The 2013 Parent Committee members are:  Laura Baldassare - This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ... Douglas Russell – This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .. Katie Hobbes –

A word on Sponsorships
The Jones Beach Junior Lifeguard Competition Team would like to offer families, or combinations of families, the ability to sponsor a Bennett Competition Board and Bennett Transport Bag for the team.They may also design their own logo to be screened on the boards and bags. All parents are also asked to solicit local/national company sponsors. This will enable the team to utilize the Bennett Boards for some time in competitions and allow the team to possess boards for both training and actual Competitions only.
