💚 It takes a community to build a community. 💚

Our Neon Social was an absolute blast, and we couldn't have done it without the incredible local businesses that donated prizes, giveaways, and goodies to help make the night even more fun.

Because of their generosity, we were able to celebrate players, hand out prizes, and create an event that brought people together both on and off the courts.

A huge thank you to our amazing sponsors:

🏓 Main Street Books
🏓 Gourmet Chef
🏓 Artmain
🏓 Get Air Minot
🏓 Chaos Games LLC
🏓 Prairie Sky Breads Minot
🏓 Cookies For You
🏓 Herrera Pickleball Training
🏓 Budget Music & Video
🏓 Margie's Art Glass Studio

Please take a moment to show these businesses some love. They're helping us grow pickleball, build connections, and create opportunities for people to come together through sport and community.

We are incredibly grateful for your support. 💚
