PICKLEBALL TO THE ORPS BOARD OF DIRECTORS!!!
CHRISTMAS PICKLEBALL FUN
Our pickleball club applauds the ORPS Board of Directors for their support as pickleball continues to revise its protocols for safe play – ball and hand sanitizing; cohort play with minimal participant contact; wearing masks when not on the courts; and no chairs for observation or visiting. We are uncertain how long these protocols will be necessary but until the health regulations change, be safe and have FUN out there! Kudos to the Board as well for approving, on a trial basis, the use of the Monarch ball until 7:00 PM Tuesday through Saturday. We all appreciate the opportunity to play during the morning and evening when the temperatures of the day are cooler; to accommodate those who work through the day; and to put the wonderful lighting system to great use!
TUESDAY/THURSDAY PICKLEBALL LESSONS
Pickleball afternoon lessons have been greatly successful with between 20 and 24 participants attending each time! Participants are being organized into both beginner and intermediate/advanced play so if you would like some playing tips, come on out at 2:00 PM Tuesdays and Thursdays. A big shout out to John Boudin, Gary Oedekerk and Dave Crosswhite for donating their teaching and coaching time!
