Hey neighbours, you may have noticed that the Rock Wall Project has been completed. If you haven’t seen it, it is at the western tip of North Beach.

While we wait for the sod to take root, we ask that members kindly not walk on it.

Thank you

Reminder

Wednesday and Friday nights are officially for Lake Bonavista’s Tennis and Pickleball Mix & Mingle. Come meet other community players in this fun, open-play format. Bring your racquets or paddles, and a pair of non-marking shoes. All skill levels are welcome!

Later this year, you will also notice another new addition: a Pickleball Paddle Holder!

The idea behind this is:

• Paddles are placed in the Holder when courts are full to indicate a group is waiting to play. When a game finishes or a group has had a court for 45 minutes, the existing team exits and the next group of four in the holder proceeds to play. The holder maintains the player's queue.

• Players are also encouraged to mix paddles to play with others and form new foursomes, if desired.

• We hope this adds some organization when the courts are busy.

• Remember: the spirit of the game is, first and foremost, fun and friendliness. Be both a mentee and a mentor and have a mega time!

Call for volunteers: A member of the Board (Kendra Curtis) has kindly volunteered to coordinate the pickleball side for the first two weeks. We’re looking for additional volunteers to help keep things running smoothly longer-term—if you’re interested in helping organize or host, please reach out. It’s a great way to meet fellow players and build a welcoming community on the courts.
