On a cold snowy day in mid December I found the most wonderful place. The South Bend Racquet Club, located at 4122 N Hickory Rd, Mishawaka, IN, is spectacular. Everyone was so nice and I recommend stopping by any chance you get. The owner, Juan, is a wonderful gentleman who is anxious to grow pickleball and runs a first class establishment. The people are very nice (as usual) and the people I got to play that late afternoon were really good players. Really good! The games were all competitive and I had to step up my game. It was a great experience! One person I met, Wayne, was very nice and showed me around and was nice to introduce me to everyone as well. I regret I only had one day to spend there. If I ever go back I will play there again!
A special shout out to the campus of Notre Dame. I had never been there but I drove through one afternoon. If you enjoy architecture as much as I do…..and historic college settings you will enjoy a quick drive through. It is stunning.
