***Common Good Project: Pinelands Group Home Fundraiser
Michael C. Fischbach, Dr. Mari Asper and Eleanor Smith will be fundraising for Pinelands Group Home. These 40 foster care teens need outdoor activity due to COVID and social restrictions. They would LOVE to have a proper outdoor surface that accommodates their basketball and pickleball activities. There will be a table set up to donate used pickleball gear like paddles, balls and nets and to hear and support more foster care pickleball programs locally. Please consider supporting this cause because the children have shown great interest in playing pickleball.
