Toronto Open & Movember
Greetings Paddlers!
We are well into paddle season and a number of events are coming up for all skill levels but before we highlight those ...
A number of our members are participating in Prostate Cancer Canada's (PCC) Movember challenge .. we know this because we've already seen hints of 5 o'clock shadows on a few dudes. If you happen to be one of those guys, please email me separately - do not 'reply all' - and send me the link to your fund raising site. To promote your efforts on behalf of PCC and help raise awareness and money to support a cause that has impacted so many of our members and families, we will be arranging a group before and after shot during week one. Don't be shy - I will hunt you down and take your picture anyway, so you may as well participate willingly!
Next up - upcoming events:
 November 19-20 - Toronto Open
APTA sanctioned event - Mens & Womens & Mens B (we do not get the numbers traditionally to hold a women's B event)
It is more than likely that this will be a 1 day event (Saturday). It is certainly more competitive than some other club-run events and attracts players from Rochester, and other foreign places BUT we encourage all levels to play and participate as its a great way to play against new people and practice your skills. Flyer is attached and sign up will be in clubhouse. Deadline is Tuesday, November 15.
November 25 - Barb White We Try Harder (Mad Men Theme)
Ladies only - sign up as single or pair
Fun, non-competitive - great for new members so bring out your friends
December 10 - Mens Christmas Kaos (ladies... stay away... stay far, far away!!)
Again, great way to intro game to new dudes.
Sign up comin'!!!
Remember that the club / courts when you are planning a neighbourhood, business or family party over holidays. Great way to intro game to newbies!! Just send an email to kslanthier@gmail.com to reserve.
Paddle lessons .. a great stocking stuffer for your paddler or paddler-wanna-be. Email lessonspaul@kingswaypaddle.com and set it up!
Maybe a new paddle, mitt, sleeve of balls .. one stop shopping .. talk to Dave Gallagher - he's got the goods.
See you on the courts! |
