Pickleballers return to action with new safety measures
The pent-up demand to play pickleball in Vernon comes to an end soon.
After two months without the sport due to Covid-19, the Okanagan Wealth Advisors Pickleball Complex at Marshall Field (6891 Okanagan Landing Road) will reopen Friday (May 15).
The Vernon Pickleball Association (VPA) in conjunction with Greater Vernon Recreation and Pickleball BC have been working to ensure the courts re-opening will align with the BC Ministry of Health guidelines.
“As a large association, we have a civic responsibility to do our part within the framework of the provincial plans to keep us all healthy and as safe as possible,” said Anne Longley, publicity for VPA.
