Big Beach Pickleball Open Play
2026-06-14 14:00 - 16:00 | Big Beach, Big Beach, Ventura, 93001, United States
We’re excited to introduce Ventura Keys Pickleball Open Play beginning Sunday, June 14th from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM.
The goal is to create a welcoming, well-organized session that encourages participation, fair rotation, and a strong sense of community. Open Play will use a simple paddle-rotation system along with a few light house rules to help keep games moving and enjoyable for a variety of skill levels.
Open Play is available to fully paid Ventura Keys members only ($250 annual dues).
This will be a great opportunity to:
• Meet more neighbors and players
• Enjoy additional playing time
• Strengthen our pickleball community
Please reply to paddleventurakeys@gmail.com and let us know if you plan to attend. This will help us gauge participation and plan accordingly.
We look forward to seeing everyone on the courts!

How you can help:
Donate gently used furniture such as sofas, dressers, or small dining tables, as well as household goods like TVs, microwaves, small appliances, linens, and dishes.
Easy pickup:
Text Kathy Powell at (805) 910-8860 or email KathyPurplePrincess@gmail.com to let her know you’d like to participate.
Simply place your items in your driveway on June 20, or arrange an earlier pickup if preferred.

I wanted to reach out about the possibility of using the beach nearby for a small baby shower. We’re hoping to keep things really simple, mellow, and low-key. It would just be a small group gathering, more of a relaxed hangout than anything formal or loud. The goal is to enjoy the setting, spend some time together, and celebrate in a calm, respectful way without disrupting the area or others around us. We would of course be mindful of cleanup and leave everything exactly as we found it.

Big Beach Pickleball Open Play
2026-08-09 14:00 - 16:00 | Big Beach, Big Beach, Ventura, 93001, United States
We had another great turnout for our fourth Ventura Keys Open Play session, and I want to thank everyone who participated and helped make it such a success. It’s been wonderful to see both returning and new players enjoying the sessions, and I appreciate everyone’s enthusiasm, sportsmanship, and willingness to help create such a welcoming atmosphere.
To keep games moving, minimize wait times, and provide the best experience for everyone, participation in this session will be limited to the first 15 players who sign up.
The players receiving this email are being given priority registration before we invite the rest of our membership. If fewer than 12 players sign up, we will open registration to all Ventura Keys Association members. Once we reach 15 players, additional responses will be placed on a waiting list in the event of cancellations.
If you would like to participate, please reply to this email as soon as possible to reserve your spot.
Please remember to bring a chair if you would like to sit between games, and don’t forget to bring water or your favorite hydration drink, along with any snacks you may want during Open Play.
I also welcome your feedback and suggestions. Please let me know what you enjoyed, what could be improved, and any ideas you have for making future Open Play sessions even better.
