A pickleball tournament meant to benefit the local nonprofit, Salina Shares is set to occur at the end of July.
"Christmas in July," a tournament that is an inaugural event for Salina Shares, will consist of divisions for men, women and mixed doubles of all ages & skill levels. The cost is $50.00 per team and all proceeds go to benefit Salina Shares (155 S. 5th St).
The name “Christmas in July” comes from the Salina Shares outreach that this tournament will be supporting. In 2024, over 100 families were served at the Salina Shares Christmas store, where the mission is to serve families that may not otherwise be able to celebrate Christmas.
The mens & womens divisions will start at 8:00 am in Oakdale Park on Saturday, July 26th and Mixed Doubles will start at 1:00 pm at Salina Smash on Sunday, July 27th.
Registration will close on Friday, July 25th or sooner if divisions fill up – so don’t delay.
