TWO NEW TIME SLOTS FOR ORGANIZED PLAYWow! We’re approaching (180) PTPC members playing pickleball, and it’s great to know we’re following the trend for the fastest growing sport in the world! In light of our increasing numbers during the regular 9-11 AM Organized Play time slot, the Pickleball Planning Committee has decided to add two alternative time slots that members can access in SignUpGenius.
- Early Start For Advanced Players:Â Starting June 1 and running through August, Blue Group players (3.5 & Up) can sign up to play at 8 AM. All other skill levels can sign up to start at 9 AM, at which time they’ll overlap with the Blue Group. It might get a little crazy from 9-10 AM, but we want to keep our club social and welcoming to all skill levels.
- Early Bird and Evening Play:Â Some of our members work during the day and wish to play either in the early mornings or evenings, but it’s not always easy to coordinate getting on the courts together. We’ve added the ability to sign up for Early-Bird-Play from 7-8 AM, and Evening-Play from 5-9 PM. We hope this will make it easier for members to see times that other folks might want to play, and it will encourage them to meet up. Please state your preferred play time in the comment box for others to see.

CRACK FILLER CREW
A dedicated group of volunteers worked on filling the cracks on the pickleball courts on Thursday, April 27. It only took the experienced crew (45) minutes to get the work done. Special thanks to Ron & Jan Gooding, Mike & Kati Guercio, Macy Felter, Fritz Baker and Ed Walker!
Â
OPENING OF THE CLUBHOUSE
We now have a fully functioning clubhouse thanks to the considerable efforts from John Melse, Ron Gooding and Pokey Walicki. The waterline leak was repaired, and bleach was poured to rid the pipes of bacteria. Having said that, we remind you of the following. The clubhouse water exists for toilet use in the restrooms. It is not safe to be used as drinking water!!!
Â
REPLACEMENT KEYS
With the start of the new season, we often see requests for a replacement key to unlock the gates on each of our courts. Members are encouraged to make one or more copies of the key they’ve been provided. This helps to minimize additional work for our club volunteers. Having said that, if you find yourself needing to replace a lost key, please contact Ron Gooding. His email address is goodingptw@gmail.com. He would be happy to help you out. A cost of $5 per key will apply.
