Game on! Pickleball Skills and Thrills
Thursday June 26, 2025 12:30pm - 1:30pm EDT
The session will start with individual racket skills, then move to serves with a partner. Participants will be able to begin earning cards by completing challenges. The activities will then move to the net for practicing dinks (no volley in the kitchen), and small rallies. The culminating activity will be a new game called “Cinco”. This is an UNO inspired fame, which switches up the game play based upon the card drawn. We are really excited for one special card, and hope it gets drawn so all participants can celebrate with a Kentucky derby inspired Victory Lap. Show up and join in the fun!
