Pickleball - Weekenders

Pickleball - Weekenders
Sep-May:  Sun, 2-3:30 PM 

Do you enjoy Pickleball or are interested in learning how to play? We've added a Weekend Pickleball group that meets September through May (no summer sessions)! This is a great place to learn and enjoy the company of others! 

This group is for beginners to intermediates. If you are new to pickleball, our leader will teach you the rules and the strokes you will need. Once you have practiced the strokes, he will get you into game play - usually in your first session. For the slightly more experienced player, our leader will periodically give you skills to work on before game play begins. All sessions will always include game play. 

There is no charge to participate, but we will collect a free will offering. Most players make donations to our food pantry. Questions? Call Doug Semisch (402) 415-4809.

Everyone who wants to share in praise and prayer to the Lord is invited to drop in any Thursday at 10 am!
