It's almost time to join the 9th annual Homer Steps Up challenge! For four weeks, track your daily walks with your smartphone, wearable fitness tracker, or pedometer to win prizes and incorporate more movement into your routine. NEW THIS YEAR: team sizes are no longer capped! Participants are now able to set their own daily walking goals, and our virtual map shows your progress on a walk between the end of the spit and Mirror Lake in Anchorage.
Every Wednesday, we're giving $50 in Homer Bucks to 10 walkers who averaged 7,500+ daily steps. Then, the 3 teams with the highest average daily steps over the four weeks will receive $100-500 to donate to their Homer organization of choice.
Donate your Yard Sale items now to Pier One Theatre on the Spit for our June 7th fundraiser.
Bring clean, working kitchen items, clothes, gadgets, small furniture, jewels, art - your yard sale treasures.
There is a trailer outside the Spit Theater. Put donations in the trailer and pick up a form for your records. Items will be accepted through May 31st.
Questions about donation delivery? Call Cathy at (907) 435-7768

Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of badminton, table tennis, and tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a ball over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports: the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules somewhat similar to tennis, with several modifications. Pickleball was invented in the mid 1960s as a children's backyard game.
Classes are available for adults and teens (12+). ALL SKILL LEVELS ARE WELCOME!
