The SCHEELS Pickleball Social at Meadowlark Brewing offers a relaxed evening of play and connection for all experience levels. Courts are set aside for the group, and rotating games make it easy to meet new partners and opponents. SCHEELS experts provide tips and guidance, and participants can try different paddles to find a good fit. The atmosphere stays casual and social in the brewery setting. Checking in on arrival enters attendees for a chance to win a SCHEELS gift card and other prizes. Groups sharing a court with more than four players are asked to reserve only four spots.

Discussion highlights the eras and themes behind characters like Felicity, Molly, and Kit Kittredge, using those stories as a springboard for selecting an adult book to read next. The potluck features historically inspired picnic bites, and participants bring a finger food or treat that loosely connects to the time period, spirit, or geographic roots of a favorite character. A set of inspiration slides is available to help match a character with ideas for both reading and recipes, while any adult book and any dish are welcome with a simple nod to the history that shaped these stories.
