Kootenai County THANKS: And pickleball for all

| July 18, 2014 9:35 PM

I would like to share my appreciation, and thank the city of Coeur d’Alene for a wonderful fun filled day; also, for the pickleball players who came out to volunteer, play, teach, and support our efforts to grow the sport in our area. I would also like to thank all those who visited our pickleball table, to either sign up for our upcoming clinics, or ask about the fastest growing sport in the United States. Many asked, “What in the world is pickleball?” Then jumped right in and tried it!

Our table was alongside a new company called Selkirk. They manufacture pickleball paddles out of Hayden and everyone was able to demo their new paddles — thank you Selkirk. The Tennis Association’s table was located on our other side, and we thank them for participating in a fun game of their players mixing it up with our players. We all enjoyed the day!
