AFMN Community Grant Application with Assurances (GK203)31 It is expected to draw a large number of individuals of all ages to a place where they can create and develop relationships while caring a for their health by staying active and engaged. Our local pickleball community is passionate about the impact of this sport on their lives. Specifically we expect more neighbors meeting neighbors for the first time, raised awareness to local festivals and participation in them as sub groups, active volunteer opportunities across the participants, and a growing sense of community and common purpose among the participants. Earlier we mentioned several hundred participants in the West Lakes area. These members self report that 95% of the social connections they have made were not present before they started playing in their local community. As the aging of our population continues we must seek to expand not only access to parks for older adults, but access to active physical engagement for this demographic. Use of social media and friendly applications such as Team Reach are already utilized within this community to engage existing members and invite new participants. Information sharing among this group between pickleball matches is as important as the physical activity and a core part of its social benefit. Players are so drawn to being engaged outdoors they have been known to play into December weather permitting. 4. Workplan and Budget [30 points] Complete the Workplan and Budget tables below.
