Senior Softball (Slow-pitch)

Senior Center, Inc. and the local Senior Softball group are looking for men and women who love to play softball to join The Retreads.  More than half of us are over 65 and we welcome men who are 55 and over, and women who are 45 and better.  Players meet at Darden Towe Park on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10:00 a.m. (9:00 a.m. on hot summer days). We believe in teamwork –sluggers can request a runner to cover the bases! We play the Richmond Seniors in two-game tournaments at Darden Towe Park and in Richmond, alternating months. Alta Vista Seniors are now joining the tournaments. Bring your softball shoes and glove, and ask for Larry. Players and fans are welcome!

Senior Softball, Active in the Park at Darden Towe Large Shelter 
Tuesday, June 24th 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. (rain may cancel game)
Bring a Dish to Pass. Picnic follows the game.

Cheer for Lake Monticello and The Retreads softball playing Richmond teams. If you can’t sit on the bleachers, bring your own chair or feel free to roam the walking trails or play Bunko. All bring water, hat, sun block and a dish to pass (remember to keep your food at the correct temperature) for a picnic after the games.

Many players are in their 70s, and you can have a designated runner out of the box. Be prepared to see how well active 70-year-olds hit!  Fans are always welcome to participate in the team potluck that follows game two. Bring a covered dish to share and, if you don't wish to sit on bleachers, BYO chair. FREE and open to all.  NOTE: Men and women who love to play are invited to bring softball shoes and glove to Darden Towe. For information, contact , 245-4024.

Senior Softball Team

A slow pitch softball scrimmage game is played after warm-ups. Alternating months, players travel to Richmond for a two-game tournament, and Richmond Seniors also travel to Darden Towe Park. For additional information, contact Larry Stremikis at 245-4024 or email him by clicking .
