The Nisei Ski Club Pickleball event was a huge success!
We had 24 participants with 4 people on the waiting list.
For future events with limited participation, please sign up early!
Intermediate Pickleball players were so lucky!
We had 2 excellent Pickleball coaches, Quynh and Monica for 9 intermediate players for 2 hours of lessons. One of the coaches, Quynh competes on the National Pickleball Level. Yahoo! What a deal and incredible coaching!
The 15 beginners worked with Coach Yvonne. They were lucky in another way because Yvonne was able to spread them out, playing on 3 courts instead of the 2 designated courts.
The coaching by Saratoga Country Club was excellent and benefited us all.
After the 2-hour session, 13 Pickleball players and 2 additional Nisei Members met for dinner at Golden Palace in Cupertino.
Stan Chan, one of our Pickleball participants knew the owner of the restaurant and ordered special dishes for us. We had a fabulous dinner for a cost of $28 including tax and tip!
I loved the Special Chicken Sticky Rice, a dish that needs to be ordered the day before.
I wish more of you could join us!
Stay tune for more Nisei Social Events!
Take care!
Jeanne
