Heart Program
The Tellico Village Pickleball Club sponsors a heart program that reaches out to our members who could use a friendly touch. A heart can be delivered for an illness, injury, death of a loved one, a thank you, or simply as a kind touch for a member who may need a little something extra. Pickleball hearts travel in a circle to our Pickleball family and friends. A heart carries a little love from home to home as a little something for our members to know their Tellico Village Pickleball Family CARES.
If you know of a member that should receive a heart wreath, please contact the Heart Program Coordinator.
Legacy Brick Program
Tellico Village Pickleball Club is committed to recognizing past and present members and sponsors who have devoted countless hours to enhance the club, as well as the donors who provide significant financial support.
A subcommittee of volunteers, using criteria developed by the board, evaluates each nominee. A list of names is then forwarded to the TVPBC Board for consideration. Once approved, the legacy’ recipient’s name is honored by being etched on a brick which is installed in front of the Wellness Center Pickleball covered courts.
Nominees’ names may be submitted at any time during the year by sending an email to the TVPBC Vice President.
