Letter from WAA Board President

To all our WAA family members, participants, coaches, trainers, volunteers and staff –

I hope that all of your families are healthy and know that you are following the guidelines that have been prescribed by our Governor, our President, and our local health officials.

I know that these times are unprecedented and that we have never seen anything like this before.  This is a good time to remember that in the 1950’s Jonas Salk and Albert Sabin, helped defeat the polio virus, which had killed and disabled thousands of lives over decades.  Presently, our best and our brightest minds are working on a vaccine for the COVID-19 virus and it too,  just like polio, will be looked at in the rear view mirror of history.  This fact should give all of us a reason to be hopeful.

The beautiful weather of the past few days has given us an opportunity to get outdoors with our families.  In your backyard, grab a soccer ball and play Sharks and Minnows, juggle, shoot on goal.  Baseball and softball players can play bounce or fly, Drop-out, or a simply play catch.  This time can be a great opportunity to connect with our children and families.

WAA is a non-profit, volunteer association that has served the area for 43 years.  I want to reassure everybody that the health and well being of our participants has always been our priority and we will resume our activities only when it is safe to do so. 

Take care, stay home and stay healthy

Dr. Lawrence Gentile, WAA Board President
