About the night

The pickleball classic returned for a second year, in the same teal and pink plaid, with paddles and a ball on the invitation, back at Pickle Haus in Algonquin for another evening on the courts.

Every spring the club throws a party with a purpose. The theme changes completely from one year to the next, and the night raises money for the club's grants, scholarships and community work across Barrington and the northwest suburbs.
