Harlingen Community Theatre 1209 Fair Park Blvd. www.hctvalleystars.org by Robert Harling Seniors, “Let’s play ball again” It’s that time of year again for senior slow pitch softball in the Rio Grande Valley. The Ed Marten’s Senior Texan Softball Leagues are open to all individual men and women aged 55 years and older. You don’t have a bat or glove? No problem, they have equipment to loan you. No matter what your skill level is, they have a league just right for you. Practices and games are played at the City of McAllen West Side Park, on S. Ware Rd. across from the Convention Center, at 9 a.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Practices begin the first week of November and continue through December. In January players will be placed on teams for the 15-game regular season. The season ends with playoff games the first week of March. The softball leagues motto is “We are never too old to play, and we will only get old when we stop playing.” Currently their most “experienced” player is 85 years young.

They raised nearly $7,000 to help residents that are battling cancer. The money is being used to help with medical expenses, travel expenses, and other related expenses by several residents in the park. The park held a dance, silent auction, had T-shirt sales, a 50/50, food sales, and more. Leslie Blasing donated her time and talent to the event and Ron Moshier even stopped by and did dollar dances to pitch in to the fundraising.
