Everyone was a winner today at the King Kong Tournaments Halloween Charity Event, benefiting the Sumter County Special Olympics in The Villages! What a spectacular time we had playing Inflatables Pickleball, followed by Pickleball Pong! We raised $400 and in the 50/50, Melissa Six-Westerfeld won the drawing but returned it to the athletes and the Special Olympics. Additionally, once many of the participants were done playing in their inflatables, those were also donated for reuse in a parade to be held in January. Thanks for everyone who showed up to play and all the spectators who showed in support. And thanks to all the volunteers for their support and for loaning us your buckets!
Here are some more photos with more to come later.
