• 1PM to 3 PM: Assist the chef with preparing the sauce. Cut vegetables, open cans etc.
• 3 PM to 7 PM:  Kitchen crew needed to prepare salads and bread, cook spaghetti (heavy pots of boiling water from 4 PM), set up take-out dinner containers and serve dinners.

Our partner in ministry, The Carpenter's Workshop Counseling Center, is excited to host their 1st Carpenter's Workshop Pickleball Fundraiser for players - open to players ages 13 and up! This event is being hosted in support of TCW’s mission to provide accessible, Christ-centered counseling. Enjoy an afternoon of friendly, social, competitive play for a great cause!


There will be two 1.5-hour round-robin doubles pickleball sessions, for players of mixed levels. You can register for one or both sessions. Each session will be a round-robin with rotating partners and opponents playing 10-minute timed rounds. Medals for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd will be awarded for the top 3 players with the best win/loss record for each session.

Unable to play but would like to make a donation to support the cause? You can purchase a DONATION ticket. Your contribution will help fund counseling services for those in need.

Net proceeds will benefit The Carpenter's Workshop, a 501(c)(3) non-profit Christian ministry, founded in 2001. To learn more about The Carpenter's Workshop and the programs that this event will help to support, please visit: http://www.carpentersworkshop.org.
