They are great ambassadors for the sport of ping pong. And as ambassadors for a sport that comes with lots of laughs and pure fun, they would love to have you join them. We play Mondays through Saturdays, 2 to 4 pm. We will also be starting a beginners' ping pong class soon, on Tuesday and Thursday at 1 pm. This beginning class will be led by ping pong player extraordinaire, Jim Wang. For more information, contact Mitchell Harmon at (909) 406-0932 or Niles Sundstrom at (818) 826-1380. ~ Niles Sundstrom Table Tennis The Water Volleyball Club is back in action! That's right, pool volleyball is no longer just a summer activity. Although the temperatures outside have been a little nippy, the pool volleyball club is continuing its tradition of fun and good-natured competition indoors at The Summit on Tuesday and Thursday from 10 am to 12 pm. Our summer session will begin Monday, April 18 and will continue meeting Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 10 am to 12 pm. Many residents have asked about the level of volleyball "skill" necessary to participate in our games. The answer is absolutely none! We play for a little low-impact exercise and a lot of fun. No experience necessary. If you happened to walk past The Courts last summer and heard laughter, that was probably us. The same applies to our indoor sessions at The Summit. Anyone can play and we look forward to welcoming you to our group. Come and join us and partake of the following benefits that water volleyball will provide: 1. Laughing too much at yourself and others. 2. Having too much fun. 3. Mental alertness, remembering the score, remembering to announce the score before the serve, remembering which way to rotate on a side out, and remembering which pool you are at. 4. Less stress and better moods. 5. Socialization and self-esteem. 6. Hand and eye coordination. 7. Sportsmanship. 8. Burns fat and calories. 9. Builds balance and agility. 10. Increased cardio fitness. 11. Feeling young again. ~ Mel Harkin, odeegos@yahoo.com Water Volleyball
