Ready, set, hike! During this series, you will get to explore several county parks and observe different plant and animal habitats while getting in healthy exercise. This program will consist of six guided hikes, some of which may take place on moderately hilly terrain and muddy trails. Hikes will take place at 10 AM on Wednesdays, from October 1 to November 5. The first class will be held at St. Patrick's County Park.

This class is for true beginners. You will learn the basic rules, how to keep score, how to find places to play, and groups to play with. You will learn to serve legally, maintain a rally, and place the ball where you want it to go. Each class will include a short lecture, drills, and open play. You don’t have to be an athlete to have fun with friends, children, grandchildren, and even strangers you may meet along the way. Paddles and balls provided.
