PLAY // Take us out to the ball field because Spring Training is back @thecactusleague! Enjoy an afternoon or evening at the Charro Lodge with friends, co-workers and family. Spring training is the premier annual fundraising event for the Charros. Funds raised through the sale of Charro Lodge passes, and stadium and magazine advertising are donated back to the community. Over the last five decades, the Scottsdale Charros and The Charro Foundation have donated millions of dollars back to the community through grants and donations to local nonprofits and schools in the Scottsdale Unified School District.
