Saugerties recreation and parks director Greg Chorvas said that the American Legion and Dutchmen baseball will play short seasons starting this month. As the teams return to play, the insurance carriers have forwarded a series of guidelines and policies that must be followed.
The Little League board had considered a season starting July 8, but with a number of coaches planning vacations and many players and parents still leery of gathering, the season was canceled. The league is still planning to run sandlot baseball for those interested, Chorvas said.
Chorvas is still waiting for information from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and from New York State about reimbursement for the special precautions it has taken to deal with the coronavirus. While he hopes to get some reimbursement, Chorvas said, it will probably be less than the full cost the town has incurred.
