This week on the Scottsdale Vibes Podcast, we're talking baseball, community, and what makes Scottsdale spring training season so special. I'm joined by Jeff Meyer, a longtime community leader and President of the Cactus League Baseball Association, to pull back the curtain on one of Scottsdale's most iconic traditions.

Today's episode is one I've been really looking forward to because it highlights something that truly puts Scottsdale on the national map every single spring: the Cactus League.

I'm excited to be joined by Jeff Meyer, a prominent Arizona business leader, longtime Scottsdale Charros member, and President of the Cactus League Baseball Association.

Jeff served as president during a pivotal time for the league, helping oversee the organization that brings 15 Major League Baseball teams and fans from all over the country right here to the Valley each year. Beyond baseball, Jeff has been deeply involved in Scottsdale's civic and nonprofit community, making him the perfect person to talk about not just spring training, but what it means to steward traditions that define Scottsdale's identity.

We're diving into how the Cactus League works, why Scottsdale plays such a key role, and what fans can look forward to as we head into another exciting season.
