New Pickleball Courts

Your TMPC at work

Bring your own nets!!!!!! Truckee Meadows Pickleball Club has painted PB lines on existing tennis courts at Mogul Park and Golden Valley Park. They are ready to go!

Huffaker Park is next on our list. Will keep you informed.

Thank you to Bob Deller and Sheri Barainca for donating the paint.

And a big thank you to our volunteers who donated their time and labor to complete these projects:

Steve and Liz Brown, Nick and Vicki Sharp, John Messing, Paul and Mary Ann Ricciardi, Lyle Mason, Bob Basso, Paul Kocher.

Event Canceled, Sorry!

Here is some news for all you pickleball lovers out there…

A few details that didn’t fit on the flyer….

This will be a potluck, but please bring Covid friendly snacks to share (ie, not chips n dips). We will have several food and beverage tables spread out as well at the pavilion to allow for social distancing.

There will be 2 courts of recreational play (2-on 2-off), 2 courts of competitive play (2-on 2-off), and 2 courts of “PLAY WITH A TOP DOG” for $10. If you and a partner would rather challenge 2 the Top Dogs than partner with them, you will get your money back if you win!

Who are the Top Dogs?

Susie Deller

Brian Fairchild
Ryan Gilbert

Terry Otis

Vicki Sharp

Jana Spano

Sam Updike

Susan Volinkaty

This event will be capped at the first 50 participants to sign up so we are asking everyone (even the Top Dogs) to pre-register at www.playtimescheduler.com

This is going to be a lot of fun for all! Please feel free to call with questions, comments or volunteer opportunities. (775) 815-6858.
