One piece of good news a day is fortunate, but three positive updates takes things to another level.  Keep reading to celebrate all three milestones!

Halfway through the shootout today, I got a text update that Bob arrived home in style with not a hair out of place!  He is doing amazingly well and appreciates all of the calls, texts, thoughts, and prayers.  Bob is on the right path to recovery, but healing takes time... so don't invite him to join in with your pickleball group just yet! 

EPPA keeps growing and growing!  Today we hit the next milestone- 400 members. Two years ago at this time there were less than 50 members and last year at this time there were about 200, so this is quite an accomplishment.  To every EPPA member- thank you! YOU are why we do what we do every day.  In addition to crediting our members and our amazing board, our growth would not be possible without Royal Pickleball who created a platform to catapult us to the next level!  

Just a quick note- this latest shootout had 538 entries in our activity log- sign ups, partner selections/changes, entries into multiple divisions, withdrawals, etc.  Imagine tracking all of that by hand?  That would be a full time job! Our system does it for us seamlessly.  This is not a "plug", but a true note of appreciation.

Today started with some nail biting and anxiousness over the weather.  The call was made to proceed with our event at Baldwin Park and we finished about 30 minutes before the rain hit.  This was our biggest shootout to date and it was a BLAST! 

A couple items of note:
