Pickleball Friday 12-12-08


Some of our missing pickleball players showed back up today. We were pleasantly surprised. Claude has moved back into the area and Lynne S. came back today. We hadn't seen Claude since last spring. It was great to have both of them back.

There was a good group for pickleball today. There were 11 all total. The most we've had in a while. The players were Ron, Sharon, Elaine, Jan, Ralph, Mike, Claude, Lynne S., Bob H., Ken and I. Ron and Sharon were already working on the courts when we got there. We've had a lot of rain over the past 3 days so there were lots of puddles on the courts. So Ken and I hurried on down to the courts with our squeegee and broom and started helping them to spread the water out. It didn't take too long to have the courts playable. The sun was out for the first time in 3 days and it really wasn't too cold. Some of us were in shorts. The wind wasn't too bad at first but seemed to pick up as the afternoon went along.

Ron and Sharon are going to organize the pickleball sessions for a couple of weeks now so I hope they get some good turnouts for play. We really appreciate their willingness to keep things going.
Remember to always be on the alert for potential picklers.
Hope to C U on D courts!!!......Lynn
