Pickleball players are joining our newest Global Team- Naples Pickleball Center to rally players from around the United States. Currently we are looking for volunteers to help us promote this opportunity within their Pickleball community. You can host/help with a Pickleball tournament benefiting The Longest Day, or simply rally your friends who play together regularly. You'll likely find me at Dill Dinkers in North Bethesda. Visit alz.org/tldpickleball to learn more. In January 2025, we will be hosting a national call to share more information and pickleball ideas. If you would like an invite, please reply and you'll receive an invitation.
