Kingsport’s Parks and Recreation Department is hosting a one-day Glow Pickleball event later this month at the V.O. Dobbins Community Center.
Glow events are when participants wear neon or white clothes, the lights to a gym are turned off and the black lights are turned on. Everyone then “glows” in the dark while running around and playing a game.
The pickleball event will take place on March 19 and include two sessions: the first is from 7 p.m. to 8:45 p.m. and the second is from 9 p.m. to 10:45 p.m. Each event is open for 24 people.
Pickleball experience is needed and the event is open for anyone ages 13 and over. The cost is $5 per person and pre-registration is required.
You can register online by going to www.kingsportparksandrecreation.org. For more information call 423-224-2489 or email Renee Ensor at reneeensor@kingsporttn.gov.
