Join our Pickleball Contact List

Meica Kelly, a previous tennis player, introduced pickleball to the community in the summer of 2023 after developing a love for the sport due to its joint-friendly nature. (Meica is shown on the far left).

Her enthusiasm motivated a fresh wave of players to experience pickleball for themselves!

Our group now meets regularly at the Perkins Community Center with other pickleball enthusiasts and we will begin providing instruction in early spring 2024.
