Let me introduce you to the 2026 board members:  John Orton-President, Don Chiapetta-Vice President/Court Usage, Julie Ware-Treasurer, Marcia McMullen-Secretary, Eve Blazsur-Communication, Steve Butz-Court Facilities, Rich Quintanilla-Social Activities. Also, one of our major fundraisers (Fun Fest) will be chaired by Mary and Gary Tayor. Thank you, Mike Steele, for becoming the new Webmaster. Special thanks to Trudy Donnelly for the many years of volunteering. We plan on having many social events this year BUT to do this we need volunteers. Please step up and help out.

One of the goals of the board is to increase social play. Julie Ware has added a group to Team Reach called Pickleball Playas United. If you are looking for some good social play, this is where to sign up.

I may not have everyone’s email. If you know of someone I missed, please let me know.
