Santa Ynez Valley Pickleball

Hello everyone! My name is Nina Baumgardner and I am an avid pickleball player. I live in the beautiful Santa Ynez Valley on the Central Coast of California. The sport of pickleball is one of the fastest growing sports in the nation and, sadly, there are no public courts in the entire Santa Ynez Valley. Thankfully, the city has broken ground on 2 new courts but can't complete the project due to lack of funds (thanks COVID!) So, it's up to us to try to raise money for our sport. Pickleball is a great asset to our community. If I have a choice of visiting 2 different places and 1 place has courts and the other doesn't, I'll pick the place I can play to visit. It's a great sport for young and old and most everyone can play so it's inclusive as well. Thank you in advance for your donation no matter how small!  Let's do this!!
