Another Band Joins the League Family with Joe Albachten and the Execs!

Joe joined the league last winter, but just recently let us know that he's a talented part of The Execs Big Band with vocalist, Debbie Bigelow!

Rock out with John "Ringo" Hill and his Tuxedo Band!

There's a lot of talent in our league, but no one slaps the skins like our own Johnny "Ringo" Hill. Last summer, he and his band were videotaped playing a rockin' gig at Surfside Park & Beach in Mound. You can watch that half hour gig here. Or you can find out where the band is playing next by visiting their website, ​www.thetuxedoband.com.  (Hint: Vic's Bar, a lot.)

Tom Foty. Excellent ball player, fine artist.

Tom has had a life-long passion for painting, which he's been lucky enough to turn into a successful career. His ability to work with a variety of media and effortlessly bring his fine art sensibilities to the editorial and corporate markets has kept him busy and in demand. Lucky for us, he also occasionally makes time for senior softball! If you like to see a sample of his work, visit his website: tomfotyfineart.com

Join the Crew to Keep the Streetcars Humming

Aaron Isaacs, Bill Preiss and Jim Tally are already part of the crew, rebuilding, maintaining and operating the Minnesota Streetcar Museum. They need more volunteers though ... it takes mechanics, woodworkers and all sorts of worker bees to keep the cars running. And if you qualify as a conductor, you get to ring the bell and wear a hat!
