Leisure World Pickleball Club - PicklePeople

  • Official club communications from Board and Activity coordinators will be managed via TrackItHub (TiH), which ensures that all members are informed.

  • TiH has some (limited) abilities for players to get in touch with each other, so members are continuing to use the google group “PicklePeople” for social communication. PicklePeople is a ‘googlegroup’, and is an informal way for LW Pickleball Club members to connect.

  • Membership to picklepeople is optional. Once a member is signed up to PP, they can easily send (and receive) emails to the rest of the group, to lwpicklepeople@googlegroups.com. 

  • Please familiarize yourself with usage guidelines (Do’s and Don’ts), below.

  • Helene Ballantyne has volunteered to manage the group.

  • To Signup: New members will receive an invitation to join. (Please be patient, it may take awhile for the invitation to be sent out; it is not automatic).
    If you aren’t on PicklePeople, and want to be but haven’t received an invitation, contact Helene .
