To the Editor:

Did you know that pickleball is one of the fastest growing sports in the USA?

It is a combination of tennis, ping pong, and badminton.

There is a growing group of pickleball players in our community that are spirited and active and welcoming to new players.

Building pickleball courts in Fairfield Hills near our new community center will enhance our community spirit and encourage people to get outside and be active.

Please vote Yes at the budget referendum on April 23 to put four outdoor pickleball courts at Fairfield Hills and join in the game!
