MVLA:
As you may have noticed, up until this point, I have issued very few
summer reservations, mostly only training for late June league teams
and late-June/early-July platinum tourneys. I apologize for the
inconvenience, but with LASD closing two critical soccer fields for
us (Blach and Egan), our dependence on LAHS tripled.

I have finally concluded the negotiations with LAHS for summer
fields. I still don't have the actual permit, but I now know what we
will be getting. This doesn't mean more changes may not happen, but
at least now they will be small, one-off possibilities rather than
wholesale programmatic conflict issues. Since LAHS is the pivotal
resource for our elder elite teams, concluding that contract was the
gate to assigning the rest of the fields suitable/possible for
elders. Now the "trickle-down" task can begin in earnest.

I am away in Sac at tourney but will start issuing reservations in
larger quantity by tonight and continuing for the next few days.

Since some of you may be leaving for vacation in the next couple days
and not have remote email access, make sure I have designated contact
person to cover for you in your absence.

Thanks for your patience (no, really, you guys have been really
patient, and I really appreciate it).
Thanks, Jeanine
