Church picnic
& spike ball tournament
First Presbyterian Church would like to invite you and yours to the
Annual Church Picnic/Carry-in on Sunday, August 3, 2014 at North Park,
behind Kroger. This year we will also have a Spike Ball
Tournament during the picnic. Spike Ball is the newest
high-energy sport to hit the scene and we are ready to play!
USA Spikeball explains the game like this: “Spikeball is a team sport
played by two teams of two players. Opposing teams line up across from
each other with the Spikeball net in the center. The ball is put in
play with a service—a hit by the server from behind the service
boundary into the net to an opposing player. Once the ball is served
players can move anywhere they want. The object of the game is to hit
the ball into the net so that the opposing team cannot return it.
A team is allowed up to three touches to return the ball. The rally
continues until the ball is not returned properly.” The winning
team will be awarded their own Spike Ball Set!
Bring a covered dish, your lawn chair, and table service and be
prepared for an afternoon of fun in the sun (and the shade) and lots of
fellowship. First Presbyterian is providing hot dogs and buns,
lemonade and water. Please remember to bring a bowl of ice for
any carry-in items that need to be kept chilled. Activities
available will include a Spike Ball Tournament, Corn Hole Games,
Playground, Basketball court, Soccer Field and a Track. Restrooms
and running water are nearby and there is a Shelter House with picnic
tables available. Other items you may want to bring along
could include blankets to sit on the grass, card tables, extra chairs
for seating, a deck of cards, a basketball/football or baseball and a
friend or two! Sorry, pop-ups, tents and easy-ups are not
permitted.
Also, while you enjoy the picnic, there will be an opportunity to
register for the Apple© iPad giveaway on Sunday, September 7.
RSVP by calling First Presbyterian Church at (937) 548-3188 Monday
through Friday, 9 AM – 4 PM on or before Friday, August 1.
