by elizaled on Nov 30, 2016
PickleballCentral likes to acknowledge pickleball clubs who give back to the community. We extend our appreciation and our All Heart Award to the Lake Wildwood Pickleball Club for their efforts to raise money for Breast Cancer Awareness month.
On October 1, 2016 the Lake Wildwood Pickleball Club supported the fight against breast cancer with their 1st Annual 'Go Pink & Dink' Pickleball Tournament.

100% of the proceeds went to support the Breast Imaging Center at Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital in Grass Valley, CA. This organization has the recognition of being in the top five centers of excellence for breast cancer treatment in the nation!
