This is a common question people ask when using the online CYC ID card process.  It is a very good question, and one we do not take lightly.  Our website uses a secure certificate and digitally encrypts every transaction between your computer and the website.  Meaning that all information you enter (including your legal documents and photos) is securely encrypted before being sent to our server.

        Once we print your ID card, the legal documents you submitted are permanently deleted.  So in the very rare chance that someone would compromise the security of our server, they would still not be able to retrieve your legal documents.

         Hopefully that will ease everyone's concern about sending their birth certificate to us for the ID Card process.

        Softball and Baseball playoffs take place because of many hours of volunteer work.  Currently West County is hosting the softball playoffs, while St. Louis City is hosting the baseball playoffs.  Of course, we all realize that our coaches volunteer their hours, but at each field there are concession stand workers, field coordinators, announcers and field workers.  So while you are watching your kids play, please take a moment to thank all those folks for all the time they have given to make the playoffs a special day for your team.

         We also wanted give a special thanks and praise to the crew at St. Monica for their hard work on getting the fields ready to play the late game Tuesday night, after a storm rolled through late in the day.  Jim Belt, Patrick Masterson, Paul Counts, Josh Pribe, John Canady, Dan Siemer, John Benben and Greg Siemer  worked hard to get 2 softball fields ready to go by the 8:15 game.  We know the parents and players will remember the game, but without your effort, that game would not have taken place Tuesday.  So be sure to say thanks to volunteers who rake the dirt so our kids can play in the dirt!  Thank you, gentlemen!
