8 couples in their mid 60’s from all over the country will be staying at the Loews Ventana Canyon resort from March 6-10, 2019 to celebrate a graduation anniversary. As the organizer I am looking for pickleball courts where I might reliably reserve a couple hours of play on one or more days during our stay. The resort does have a pro shop and tennis courts but no provisions for pickleball. Given the sports popularity this will no doubt prove to be a challenge. I know my former classmates and their spouses will take to the game as Jeanie and I have. I will continue to search all websites for information but would appreciate any guidance you can provide. Feel free to text or call.
