Oh Hey!

As the temperatures drop and winter settles in, finding enjoyable indoor activities becomes essential. And there are definitely things to do around the valley. Even when it’s winter. From Ski Sundown to pottery classes at Canton Clay Works. Or maybe a day trip to New Britain Museum of Art or cooking classes at Sur Le Table. There are surely options around the valley and surrounding area.

We’re also excited to introduce you to another winter (which will turn into a year round love)… Pickleball, a dynamic sport that’s capturing hearts nationwide, and to Dill Dinkers Pickleball Club in Simsbury, CT—the premier indoor facility in the Farmington Valley offering dedicated pickleball courts.

What is Pickleball?

Pickleball is a paddle sport that blends elements of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong. Played on a court similar in size to a badminton court, it utilizes a perforated plastic ball and paddles, making it accessible and engaging for all ages and skill levels. The game’s simplicity and emphasis on strategy over power have contributed to its rapid growth across the country.

Health Benefits of Pickleball

Engaging in pickleball offers numerous physical and mental health advantages:

• Cardiovascular Health: The sport provides a moderate-intensity aerobic workout, enhancing heart and lung function.

• Muscle Strength and Balance: Regular play improves muscle tone and balance, reducing the risk of falls, especially in older adults.

PEACE

Peace is not something external that happens to you—it is an inherent part of who you are.

It cannot be taken from you, because peace is rooted in how you choose to respond and live.

Even in a world filled with chaos, noise, and uncertainty, you have the power to cultivate peace within. Life’s challenges may come unexpectedly, yet you can navigate each moment with a calm and steady heart.

When you chase after fleeting and superficial desires, true peace will slip away. Instead, anchor yourself in meaningful, lasting values, and you’ll discover the path to genuine peace.

No one can impose peace on your heart, and no one can take it away once you’ve embraced it.

Imagine the strength and clarity that come from living each day with peace at your core. It’s always within your reach, waiting for you to choose it.
