Saturdays through Wednesdays, 7 – 9 p.m., Old Gym

— from Kim Ihlenfeldt, Program Coordinator, Orcas Park and Rec —

Starting October 1st Orcas Park and Rec will once again be offering adult drop-in sports for ages 16+ in the old gym at the public school, Saturdays through Wednesdays, 7 – 9 p.m. In addition to volleyball and basketball this season, we will also be offering pickleball.

Pickleball is a racquet sport, which combines elements of badminton, ping-pong, and tennis. Originating from Bainbridge Island, it is now played throughout the world by people young and old. Come by on Oct. 8th for a free introduction to the sport.

The Open Gym schedule kicks off with Volleyball on Wednesdays and Sundays, Basketball on Tuesdays and Saturdays, and Pickleball on Mondays.

There is a $2 drop-in fee. Discount punch cards are available for purchase at Open Gym.
