Did someone say Christmas in July? 🎄 Dennis Akkola is ready to play no matter the season. Join the fun and sign up for our Pickleball Fundraiser on September 12 from 2–6 PM. It’s the perfect way to sleigh the court for a great cause.

Santa may not be making an appearance this time… but Dennis will be trading in the suit for athletic gear. Think you’ll still recognize him? 😉
