Dear 65 NorthStar’s  players:

Wow what an inaugural year for 65 NorthStar’s! We can’t say enough about the camaraderie, great games, fun and general cooperation from everyone to make this a great season! Hats off to all of you who believed we could create this environment to play and enjoy our favorite game. It is very gratifying and indeed humbling to have set this vision and then with your help, make it happen!

While we celebrate and reflect on a great year, we are already thinking about how to improve what 65 North stars  can offer to  our current players, and how to attract new players. To this end, you will all be receiving a survey letter via email in the coming weeks. Simple questions to confirm what we are doing well, what we might want to tweak and what new ideas might be useful. Please take a few minutes to respond when you receive the email. Your feedback and ideas are always welcome! We will also find a few ‘social” opportunities to stay in contact over the slower/ colder months. As many of you have heard us preach, keep moving and working out in whatever fashion you choose. We are all blessed to be able to play baseball at our ages and we should never take it for granted.

Many of you ask how can I help the league? The best and easiest what to help 65 NorthStar’s grow is to tell your baseball friends how much fun you had and invite them to check us out. There is always room for like minded ballplayers. Please check our website for updates, and information about next season’s registration as we head into the holiday months.

Please share any comments, questions or ideas  with us at: [email protected]

Thanks again for a great season and looking forward to next year !
