We’re excited to announce the launch of our temporary website! Our Communications Committee has been working tirelessly to ensure you have a website as they work towards launching a new website.

PICKLEBALL
Last Saturday was a hot sizzling day in March (only in Florida). Huntington Pointe hosted Hunters Run to see who would advance to the championship game scheduled for tomorrow. Hunters Run brought their “A” game, hoping to upset the number one seeded Huntington Pointe. But HP was up to the challenge as they defeated Hunters Run 17 to 6. So, it’s on to the championship, which will be played tomorrow at HP against The Yacht & Racquet Club of Boca Raton. So please come down and watch our guys and gals play for the Palm Beach Pickleball League Championship. Thanks to everyone supporting our team.

SOCIAL CLUB MEETING
Dr. Robert Watson, Professor of History at Lynn University, spoke to a full house at our last Social Club meeting. He was his usual effervescent, humorous self. His wealth of information educated the crowd.

PAP CORP. WALKATHON
How wonderful to see our community come together as we did for this important cause. Your support for our 2023 Walkathon helped us raise over $20,000 for cancer research. You can be proud of yourselves and our chapter for being able to do so. Thank you to all the volunteers and sponsors. Carol Pam and Bonnie Platt walkathon Co-chairs.

TENNIS/PICKLEBALL/MENS CLUB
Three HP clubs came together for the first time to host a dinner/dance at Benvenutos on Wednesday night. Over 120 guests enjoyed a cocktail hour followed by a four-course sit-down dinner. The music was provided by “IT TAKES TWO” who kept everyone on the dance floor. A wonderful time was had by all.

LITHIUM BATTERIES
The Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach advises that no Lithium Batteries be placed in your garbage, as they may ignite from the heat and cause a fire.
