🎾 Who can beat Dr. Bowser in a game of pickleball?
The EXSC faculty are tossing around the idea of Pickleball with a Professor this semester!

If you would be interested in playing,please choose any of the time frames that might work in your schedule. No skill needed. It’s a time to meet your profs, maybe some other EXSC majors, and be active! Our goal would be to try and get them counted as BTC events as well.
