SUMMARY:🥒🎾Let’s play pickleball! Crazy Rules\, then Glow-in-the-Dark
CONTACT:Al S.
DESCRIPTION:2nd Annual Pickleball Ride\n\nLet’s play pickleball!\n\nBring 
 your best self and your most creative trash talk\, big swings\, even 
 bigger misses\, laughter\, and high-fives.\n\nLast year we had a ton of 
 fun at Mount Tabor tennis courts while the sun was up\, then rode to 
 Laurelhurst to play in the dark with a bunch of portable lighting\, and 
 will do the same this year.\n\nPlease show up early to help set up our 
 courts. I can’t set up everything quickly. Thanks to everyone who helped 
 last year!\n\nThis year we have a twist to our daylight session at Tabor 
 -- crazy rules!\nI have a list of about ten rules\, and we’ll introduce a 
 rule or two once every ten minutes\; this way everyone can get used to the
  rules and play a bit before learning new ones. Examples:\n- The “no 
 volley zone” (NVZ)\, also known as the “kitchen\,” is still NVZ if you use
  your normal paddle\, buuuuut … if you use a kitchen utensil or frying 
 pan\, you CAN volley in the kitchen. Using a cookie sheet is highly 
 encouraged\, and is worth 2 points if you hit a winning shot while 
 yelling\, “Baker’s Dozen!” Do you know how loud it gets when a cookie 
 sheet slams a pickleball? Well\, some of us don’t\, and can’t wait to find
  out.\n- Bicycles form the net. If you “call it”\, then hit a basket\, 
 handlebars\, or bike seat with the ball\, your team wins the point 
 outright\; if you hit a ball into a basket and it stays in\, that makes it
  a basket ball\, hence 2 points.\n- “Body parts rule”\; one can only 
 guess\, unless one joins this ride… \n- and other rules for max silliness 
 and hopefully lots of laughs\n\nI’ll bring 2 or 3 pickleball nets\, line 
 markers\, and a few paddles like last year\, but pls bring paddles and 
 balls if you can. Even better is if you bring KITCHEN utensils\, cookie 
 sheet\, pots\, pans\, etc.\n\nI’ll also bring lots of lights: LED 
 paddles\, LED pickleballs\, glow bracelets\, EL wire to mark the net\, UV 
 reactive tape and UV lamps to make court lines glow\, and lots of other 
 lights including disco lights.\nMeet at 6:15\, play at 6:45\, ride\, play 
 again\nEnds at Laurelhurst Park Pickleball
