Shack & Field Bond Info

**2024 SPRING/FALL FIELD & SHACK WORK BONDS**

THANK YOU to all families who came out for Field Work on 3/9, 3/10, 3/24 & 4/6 as well as Shack Work throughout the Spring & Fall Seasons!! Work/Shack Bonds have been refunded to your payment method used at registration.  

Shack Bond & Work Bonds

Our League was built on the foundation of VOLUNTEERS as we need your assistance in maintaining and enhancing our Community Baseball Complex. The operation of our all-volunteer league and the concession stand (The SHACK!) at the Green Brook Baseball Complex continues to require family support. Accordingly, it is mandatory that GB Baseball member families fulfill two volunteer requirements; a "Field Work" bond AND a "Shack Work" bond. The bond part of the requirements is a fee that is paid at the time of registration.  Once a family fulfills the required work hours a refund will be given.  There are different work/fee requirements for the Field Work and for the Shack Work bonds. The “Field Work” bond fee is $100 and the “Shack Work” bond is $30.  

WORK BOND
Field Work time is accomplished through general maintenance work. Field Work includes raking leaves, painting, shack clean out, hanging banners, and getting the fields ready for Opening Day.  The Field Work bond times are typically scheduled in early March for Spring Season and early November for Fall Ball. The one (1) per family Field Work requirement is 4 hours or a payment of $100. The payment is due at the time of registration and a refund will be issued after the work is completed. PLEASE MAKE SURE TO SIGN BOTH “IN” AND “OUT” SO YOU RECEIVE YOUR PROPER WORK CREDIT at the shack during the work days. The address of the GB Baseball Complex is 8 Highland Street in Green Brook (next to IEF school).

Team Managers and Team Coaches are exempt from the Field Work bond requirement. Also, please note - there is no Field Work requirement for families with a player in TBall only. Field Work days are subject to cancellation due to inclement weather. Additional days may be added if needed. Announcements regarding both will be updated on the website. 

SHACK BOND
Shack Work Bond is accomplished throughout the season by working a total of 3 hours in the Snack Shack.  Shack Work is required for both Rec and Travel families. For example, a family with a player(s) in both Travel and Rec are required to fulfill 6 hours (3 for Rec & 3 for Travel) of Shack Work. The Shack Work bond of $30 is paid upfront at the time of registration and will be reimbursed at the end of the season when the 3 hours has been fulfilled. Managers and Coaches are NOT exempt from Shack duty. The SHACK Sign-ups will be forthcoming. Also, please note - there is no Shack Work requirement for families with a player in TBall.
