A job well done. Our beginners outdid themselves playing in the Olympics this morning. They looked great, concentration was at a level high and the scoreing was unbelievable.

A Thank You from Ron Eversole
I just wanted to thank you all for allowing me to join the Pickleball group at Highland Lakes last Thursday and Friday. I really enjoyed learning to play and am anxious to get back and try it some more - surely I will improve. You all - and many of the others - were so hospitable and welcoming! I appreciate being included. Thanks again for allowing me to get involved. It just makes me wish I could find a way to retire sooner.Ron Eversole
Ron and his wife just bought a place on Cash Court and plans to be here at H.L. as much as possible. Ron, were all anxious for your return.

Good turnout of players on our courts today.
Each day that we play Pickleball, we ask ouselves, how many courts do we set up today. Will it be one, two, three or four. Lately, we have had to set up four courts due to the greater number of players. Today, we had four courts set up with 5 to 6 people waiting to play. There were some great games going on. Our players are coming out to have fun and get some practice, especially with the Olympics starting on March 17.

Thank You and your Pickleball players for a fun time.
I received this message from Joe Fuller of Pembroke Fairways and thought I would share it with you.We had one great time and again Thank You for having the Pembroke Pickleball players over last night. That was my first time playing indoors and for me it was just as much fun as playing outside.
