The recreation committee’s adult pickleball program is also returning from May to September. Sessions are available for Monday/Wednesday and Tuesday/Thursday programs. Each day’s slot is from 4 to 7 p.m., and sessions will take place at Pleasure Park.
Monday and Wednesday registration for the entire season — May 19 to Sept. 29 — opens Sunday, March 28, at noon for residents and April 11 at noon for non-residents. The sign-up fee is $75.

“Please do not register if you cannot commit to playing at least 30% of the days.
