Just one month ago, the Park City Pickleball Club partnered with Park City MARC to put on a holiday social that won’t soon be forgotten.

More than 100 people attended this first-annual event. PC MARC allocated its indoor tennis courts and also provided the party room, line tape, Dura Fast 40 balls and wristbands. Their staff handled registration and check in.

For their part, club members and other volunteers came out in force, laying down tape to create 16 pickleball courts in just an hour. They also brought their special dishes to a potluck feast that included dips and cheeses, chips and veggies, cookies and pies and candies.

Participants rotated between snacking, socializing and – of course – playing pickleball. There were four courts dedicated to advanced players and eight to intermediates. First-timers and beginners shared four courts complete with instructors who taught, coached and encouraged those who were new to the game.
