Club Members Donate to Local Elementary School
First off, many thanks goes to our wonderful PebbleCreek Pickleball Club Members! Recently, the club held a very successful School Supply Drive for the Elisio C. Felix School, a Title 1 School in Goodyear. Our generous members donated two carloads of school supplies plus numerous gift cards from Target, Walmart, Amazon, as well as many cash donations. These gifts will go a long way in helping these students start the school year right! A big thank you to volunteers Kathy Delaney, Virginia Coffee, Michelle McKee, Cathy Adkins, and Michelle Devine for helping distribute delicious Arriba’s breakfast burritos.

Mark Friedenberg Pickleball Hall of Fame Inductee Visit
Recently, Pickleball Hall of Fame Inductee Mark Friedenberg was looking to have some fun at PebbleCreek. Mark teamed up with Howard Mendel in a match against Jim Barbe and Greg Wellington. Some amazing pickleball ensued. Jeff Gauvin refereed the game that ended in a 12-10 score, with Mark and Howard as the winners. The eager crowd wanted more Pickleball, so the players played a second match. Mark paired up with Greg against Howard and Jim. After some incredible shots and plays, the game ended with an 11-9 score, and Howard and Jim brought home the win. What a great opportunity to watch these amazing athletes!
Updates on Our New Courts!
Last but not least, we have fantastic news regarding the new Pickleball courts. Construction has begun on the 16 new courts, with the grand opening just around the corner. We eagerly anticipate the announcement of the official opening date, so make sure to mark your calendars!
