I wish to say “thank you” to all who donated canned food items and or toys for the two charities
(Toys for Tots) and (Golden Harvest) during our pickleball event held on Saturday, (12/13) at
Odell Weeks. The items donated for the food drive totaled over 225 items, and almost 3 Toys
For Tots boxes were filled with toys as a result of donations from Gregg Park and this event.
Your generous donations will help feed families in need and the toys donated will bring joy and
happiness to many children during this Christmas season. We had a gorgeous and beautiful day
for pickleball and each of you being a part of our pickleball community only made the day better
with your outpouring of love and generosity by showing such support for these two worthy
charities.
I wish to acknowledge the support staff who made this event successful:
Aiken Pickleball and George Carr (Scheduling Event)
Debra Folk (Created our fantastic flyers)
Brian Eberhard (Collector of Toys at Gregg Park)
Tracey Howell (Ticket handling, set up and loading of items collected)
Mo and Marian Garcia (Set up, providing food and refreshments)
Gregg Sparks (Loading of collected items)
Sincerely,
Mike Howard
