Party 4 Life

I want to personally thank all of you who attended this years Party4Life pickleball tournament! The day was a huge success and we were able to raise over $30,000 through all of our different tournaments. The money will be donated to the Mesquite Veterans Association to benefit the new Mesquite Veterans Hall. I can't think of a better way to honor our local veterans.

It was a long day but we managed to finish before dark. Thank you to those who helped by refereeing matches. A special thanks to Chuck, Susan and Lisa for helping and putting up with me.

Look forward to seeing all of you again in the spring.

Once again, a good pickleball tournament happens not because of the people running it, but by the people playing in it. Thanks You All!!

Nate's Party @ St George indoor courts

Had a great time last night playing pickleball and celebrating Nate Aiwohi's Birthday

The indoor courts are always great to play at. The dark green paint on the walls is a nice addition. Saw quite a few friends I had not seen in a few months.
