Scottsdale Charros

**About** Formed in 1961, the Scottsdale Charros are an all-volunteer, nonprofit group of business and civic leaders that help build our community by supporting youth, sports, education, and charitable causes. From their very beginning, the Charros – meaning gentlemen riders – embodied the City of Scottsdale’s slogan, “The West’s Most Western Town.” Today, the Scottsdale Charros remain an all-volunteer, nonprofit group who raise funds to support the Scottsdale community. Most of these funds are raised through Spring Training Baseball which the Charros have hosted in Scottsdale Stadium for more than 60 years. The Charro Foundation was formed in 1985 to support the Charros’ mission through expanded partnerships and collaboration with Scottsdale-area community organizations.
