Rodger, I take strong exception to your suggestion that the primary motivation of Tepalo members is making charitable contributions to benefit the school. The primary motivation for most of us is to enjoy playing pickleball in a pleasant setting. By "pleasant setting" I mean a clean, shady, court with good lighting. I'll be a former member if you put "school support" ahead of "player support". Installing bathrooms is a good start, but it's not the only improvement players need. When can we expect to have a power outlet available at the court? I can't ride my electric bike to the court and home again on a single charge. And what good is a covered court on a rainy day if it's too dark to play? I'm tired of seeing our membership erode because of our poor lighting.

I would also like a power outlet to work with a ball machine for practice and training.

Hi Dave. We already have 5 in our group that regularly plays in this time slot, so took you out. Please feel free to propose another time/day and whoever is available can join.
Thanks!

Sure, Philip. Had it booked, but guess others may not have realized that we don't book more than 5 players. Hope Dave wasn't too disappointed :)

Great, thanks.

5 players

My friend Garth is coming to play with me to introduce him to the court and grou
