We want to take a moment to recognize Randy Ferrie, the visionary behind founding the Madison Scouts Alumni Association in 2018 and the driving force behind its growth. His tireless work, resilience, and unwavering dedication have shaped the MSAA into what it is today. Due to health challenges, Randy has made the difficult decision to step down as MSAA president.
Randy is a fighter, a true leader, and very deserving of the moniker of “The King.” Please reach out to him to thank him for all he has done and wish him well. Randy, YNWA.

Just because the summer season is over doesn’t mean the Madison Scouts' spirit has to pause! Many alumni keep the energy alive throughout the year, whether it’s grabbing coffee with a fellow Scout, marching in alumni parades, or even hosting virtual game nights. For example, Jorge Franco is hosting a watch party for the Houston Texans vs the Tennessee Titans game on November 16th in Houston!
