🏓 Bring Shade to Sawyer Point Pickleball Courts spectator stands🏓 Our pickleball courts at Sawyer Point are a hub of action, bringing that joy to players of all ages and levels, but sitting in the blazing sun while waiting to play or cheering on your friends is not fun. That’s why we're raising funds for a much-needed shade canopy to keep spectators cool. 🌟 And the best part? All donations will be matched! 🌟 Yes, you heard that right! Every dollar you donate up to $70,000 will be doubled, making your impact twice as powerful. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to enhance our beloved courts. 👉 Donate today!
