I'm gonna call the meeting to order and then immediately uh stand at recess uh uh without objection stand at recess at the call of the chair.

No, we want to go down to your place.

All right, ladies and gentlemen, sorry for the uh uh slight delay.

Um we do not have uh six members present, so this is going to be a regular rather quick uh meeting.

Uh we'll go through the agenda up until the roll call, at which time uh I'll declare that uh we do not have a quorum and uh um adjourn the meeting uh at that point in time.

We do have one piece of business that we do need to conduct.

It's the drawing for the junior league world series, but that does not need to occur as part of the meeting.

Uh we don't have a quorum, so this is basically us kind of hanging out here, and you're all welcome to stay and see who you know what the matchups are.

Uh but yes, it will be a uh a quick meeting in that respect.

Uh we do not have anybody here for the invocation.

So again, moving forward to item three, the Pledge of Allegiance.

I'm gonna take that duty.

And to the Republic for which it stands one nation under God with liberty and justice for our all.

That brings us to the roll call.

Roll call, please.

Mrs.

Daniels is excused, Mrs.

Rose is excused, Mr.

Johnson.

Here, Mrs.

Brandana is excused, Ms.

Winton.

Here.

Mr.

Geis.

Here.

Mayor Woolley.

Here.

Mrs.

Bauer is excused, and so is Ms.

All right.

Uh as mentioned uh sorry, just doing my notes here and we confirm with our corporation.

All right.

Uh so I I will say that I talked to the three council people uh individually um and uh they all you know express their uh regrets and uh but and I can't go into the the details uh that's a personal matter uh for them.

So with that uh without seeing a quorum, um I will rule that this uh meeting is adjourned at six thirty-four p.m.

Fastest meeting to date.

All right, so Mr.

Bazura.

Mr.

Chairman, I would just like to excuse any uh directors or workers that were here to you know if they want to leave, go ahead and except for the unless you want to see the junior league world series uh drawing and Ms.

Mayor, if there's anything critical, I mean certainly we could call a special meeting.

Hopefully, hopefully that is not the case.

Okay.

All right, Mr.

Bazoara.

I appreciate you uh all of you staying.

Um we've uh as you know been doing the World Series in the City of Taylor since 1981.

We've got um another exciting tournament planned for August 3rd through August 10th.

Um Joe Horth and Dave Watkins are here to conduct the draw.

We will uh Tier and I will take notes on who plays who gets the buys.

So we'll just walk around here, ask you guys to draw a ping pong ball, we'll determine the matchups.

This information will immediately go out to the public beyond the website, and teams from Australia and Puerto Rico and Latin America will all know what to expect when they arrive here in Taylor.

So thank you very much for helping us conduct the draw tonight.

Hello.

Hello.

Good evening.

Okay, the 2025 JLWS bracket draw rules.

Under the direction of the Little League headquarters in Williamsport, we are conducting the draw for the 2025 JLWS.

A total of 12 teams are participating again this year, consisting of six teams in the United States bracket and six teams from Puerto Rico, Canada, Australia, and the little league regions of Latin Latin America, Europe, Africa, and Asia Pacific make up the international bracket.

The local District 5 tournament will again be played at Heritage Park, and the winner will earn one of the USA's six spots in the 2025 Junior League World Series.
