Erik Mirabal

Vice President

Erik Mirabal lived his childhood in Santa Clarita where he developed his passion for athletics. He played many years of little league as a young child and in high school joined the track and field team where he went to CIF finals for the polevault. In the summer of 2004 he moved to the town of Paradise where he met his wife Brianna Mirabal. He rediscovered his love of baseball through the Paradise Park and Rec softball league. There he became a member of the Ridge Softball Club and has helped numerous people through their fundraising tournaments. As his family grew, he has coached both soccer and baseball for his children, as well as many other youths in the community. He hopes that by working with Paradise Little League he can help inspire more coaches and children to help them reach their full potential.

Lori Dillard

Treasurer

Lori was raised in Magalia and played softball for many years throughout her childhood. In her youth, Lori was active in volunteering her time with many organizations in Paradise.  She ventured off to other communities in her adult years, but continued her love for the game and played in recreational leagues. 

When Lori and her family returned to Paradise in 2022, both she and her husband Bryce knew they wanted to give back to the communicy once again and be an active force in the rebuilding of our beautiful town. Lori and Bryce began coaching their son's Little League team in 2024. Lori recognized that she could offer more of her time to PLL and is now an active member of the Board. She is honored to be part of this amazing organization and is excited to keep the program fun and safe for our youth.
