Lara Tiffin will do an excellent job of enhancing the athletic/activities programs for Salem/Keizer schools! She will be an awesome partner in working with the school Athletic and Activities Directors in doing whatever is needed for the students! I have seen her outstanding skills as an Athlete, Administrator and working with people, she is awesome!
Talk to the City of Salem about Turf fields for Skyline Park. This could even be a revenue maker for the City. Rent the fields so that all High Schools could benefit.
Sports have become a place where families who are middle and lower income cannot compete. The limited number of spaces on teams makes for cut throat competition. Meaning private camps and training are required, and even then not all kids make smaller programs like volleyball, baseball, and basketball.
Most kids cannot swim or play baseball/softball/volleyball let alone play competitively by the time they hit middle or high school level sports that are from title schools. Which also means fewer opportunities for the skill building and problem solving sports provide. It’s time to stop gatekeeping and inequalities in sports in Salem.
