Our Sincere Thanks



For Your Service
Roger Fellows - Kate Perrie - Marg Ouimet -  Ken Shabenthal 

Roger Fellows - served as Vice President from 2011-2012, he than stepped up to fill the vacated position of Treasurer in 2013, was unanimously elected to the position in 2014 with his term ending March 31, 2016.  During this time Roger wore many hats from assisting with the training clinic program to coordinating the Tournament Raffle. Roger will always be remembered for moving our club forward for implementing club membership fee.  New members do not know what it was like to always have quarters available to play or as in the last season of the the "old way" collecting 27,000 quarters!

Kate Perrie - served this season as Secretary.  Setting up the club roster on Constant Contact, brought the club e-mail system to an entire new level. No easy task, as she contacted many club members to attain accurate contact information.  Coupled with maintaining the roster and recording both board and general meeting minutes, Kate was always busy!

Marg Ouimet - served as a Director at Large for two years and was than elected to the position of Vice President, to fill the vacated seat. Regardless of the many things that Marg has been involved; our club members immediately think of Marg as setting up "The Best" medical program. As coordinator Marg made us proud of the "Pickleball Float" that was entered into the Casa Grande Christmas Light Parade.  Marg also brought to all Palm Creek residents the "File for Life" program. (see link under Club Information)

Ken Shabenthal - served as a Director at Large for the past two years.  During the this time Ken worked on the Board's special projects. Managed the asset inventory . Listened to our club members and recounted to the Board the needs and desires of our club members. Additionally, for both Nationals and our Club tournaments, Ken worked with both check in and the tournament desk
