October 6, 2024 - SNP Volunteer/Member Appreciation Party
Over 100 players attended a mid-day pickleball event, October 5, held at the Cabochon Club in the Sunstone Trilogy community. This was an event sponsored by SNP to show appreciation for our supporters. Participants enjoyed a catered lunch, live music supplied by Randy Wheeler and fun pickleball. Players were asked to find someone new that they have never partnered with and play games on one of eight courts offered by the venue. A unique challenge court was set up asking players to place a ball over a net hitting with items other than a paddle. The SNP Board extends a hearty THANK YOU to people who have made pickleball successful in our community. We keep costs down and do it via volunteers that just pitch in, teach, coach, clean playing surfaces, tape courts/paint lines, pick up trash, keep scorecards, set up nets, act as court monitors, maintain information systems, manage social media, help with registrations, officiate, sell raffle tickets, donate prizes, take photos, act as benefactors, write articles, meet with municipalities, set up/tear down, help with parking, provide entertainment, handle snacks, etc.… A special shout out to Alec Earle and his team for making this event happen.

October 18, 2023, Age 55 Plus Forum - mini competitions
Southern Nevada Pickleball Club is pleased to announce the establishment of a pilot program that brings together eight senior communities in our region. The primary objectives of this program are to cultivate new friendships, foster a sense of community that embraces all, and provide opportunities for seniors to engage in recreational activities. We recognize that the success of this venture is contingent upon careful evaluation, and we are currently in the trial phase to determine its viability for future continuation. Throughout this initial phase, we have already witnessed the formation of new friendships and the unification of senior communities that might not have had the opportunity to connect otherwise. On the 12th of November, we will conclude this trial period and conduct a thorough analysis of the program's advantages and disadvantages to make an informed decision about its future. We wish to express our gratitude to all those who have played a part in making this initiative possible, with a special acknowledgment to the Team Captains and their assistants. Your dedication and commitment have been instrumental in shaping this endeavor. The eight communities participating in this program include: Heritage Henderson, Aliante, Regency, Sun City Summerlin, Trilogy Summerlin, Trilogy Sunstone, Siena and Heritage Stonebridge. Regardless of the outcome, we are confident that it has already made a positive impact by bringing communities together and creating opportunities for social engagement. Thank you to everyone involved, and let's continue to work together to strengthen our senior communities and foster lasting connections.
