Don’t worry if you haven’t played before – we will supply all the equipment (paddle and ball), and playing pickleball is as easy as playing ping pong. If you are a Pickleball enthusiast, feel free to bring your own racquet and test your mettle with the church’s own ace, Reverend Al!
The courts are conveniently located next to the newly renovated playground, where the kids can safely run around with each other. We’ll also have some food and drink, but feel free to bring whatever you please. See you October 29!
