Erie Gives Day is Today!

Erie Gives Day is the perfect day to support your favorite non-profit!  There are many worthy causes and donations make a big impact on small non-profit organizations.  We humbly ask that you consider donating to EPPA if you are able.

This is our fourth Erie Gives day.  The first year, we raised around $700.  Last year, we collected almost $3,000!  We were blown away by that generosity- let's see what we can do today. Click here to donate.

We used the funds to provide fourteen youth players with Diadem Warrior BluCore Paddles.  These paddles retail for around $250 each, but due to our affiliation with Royal Pickleball- we were able to purchase them at a staggering 75% off!  The players were gifted the paddles on the first day of a week long pickleball course and there were pure JOY filling the room when they found out they got to keep them.

In addition, we were able to invite players ages 10-17 to participate in the youth division of our July Memorial Shootout.  They were able to get the full tournament experience at NO cost to them.  This is an event we would like to keep growing in future years.

Below are pictures of our amazing youth tournament participants- they were competitive but also complementary and supportive of each other. A great time was had by all!
