Selkirk Pickleball

Supports the Virginia Indoor

 

    On behalf of the Virginia Indoors, I would like to give a big " THANK YOU" to Jeanette Gearheart of Selkirk's growth program for sending us 12 new pickleball paddles that will enable us to grow the game in our area.  These paddles will allow the Virginia Indoors to offer  beginner classes for adults and students  that do not have their own equipment.  We already have new programming in mind for both the Junior and Senior High School level of players.  Thanks again Jennette and Selkirk for helping grow the game.

All money raised will go toward remodeling the lobby and rewiring the electric work of the Club. If you are interested in donating to the remodeling project, stop by the Club and talk to Dave.
