Pickle Ball

Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in America. You know something is happening when the New Yorker magazine runs an article entitled, “Can Pickleball Save America?” (July 18, 2022) Two Rotarians in our District (Darlene Drapkin, Richmond, and Ken Brummel-Smith, Mt. Shasta) are USA Pickleball Ambassadors. They will be holding a pickleball clinic and play day October 27 from 12 to 5pm at the District Conference in Monterey. The event will be at the Monterey Tennis Center, a short walk from the conference hotel. The event will start with two short clinics, one by Darlene for new and novice players, and one by Ken for more advanced players. Then we will have a “scramble” – a fun way to play games where everyone gets to play some games with similar skilled players. The cost will be $45 per person (pay the day of at the courts) .

Come on out and try pickleball. It’s easy to learn and a fun way to get exercise and meet other Rotarians.
