PICKLEBALL
2024 JULY MIXER EVENT
Dear Members,
We cannot believe it is August already! What a fantastic full season of pickleball it has been at your new facility. July has been such a busy month, with the success of our Saturday Open Play, events, expanded Junior Pickleball Program, Interclub Mixer, open play and more! Adding to our success was the announcement that Forest Highlands won the prestigious USTA National Outstanding Racquet Facility award (tennis and pickleball) which only added to the season! The award will be given out at the US Open in August. Assistant General Manager, Kurt Martin who has been so instrumental to the success of the racquet program, especially Pickleball will be receiving the award on the club’s behalf. Please remember to recognize and thank Kurt whenever he visits. We had a wonderful 4th of July Mixer where 76 members and your guests joined us to celebrate the big day! We also had an interview that will be airing with regards to the growth of pickleball in Flagstaff and especially at Forest Highlands. Later in the year, Forest Highlands will be featured in the Racquet Industry Magazine.
