The friendships grow
off the court, too.
We may be paddle pros, but we like to have fun off the court too. From golf outings to dinner parties and holiday fundraisers — this is where our community really comes together.

The PRPC Golf Outing.
Believe it or not, the outing's roots go back to 2016, when Tom Gawne organized the first event near his lake cabin in Wisconsin — a scrambles tournament that drew 22 adventurous members.
It ran for years until COVID paused things in 2020. Thanks to Sandy Rouhselang, the tradition came back in 2023, and in 2024 about 40 PRPC members hit the greens for a fantastic day at Tam O'Shanter.
Fun format
Scrambles-style teams of four, mixing skill levels to keep things relaxed and inclusive.
Contests
