Pickle Ball
Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in the USA.
Checkout Google with “pickleball”, lots of info and videos.
We usually play doubles on the small pickleball court situated between
our OCA building and the Ozello Island Church.
We play at the approval of the church on their court and the church is
not liable for our use of the court.
If we can get at least four players for a doubles game we generally play
at 8 am on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
Other days and times are always open for discussion.
If anyone is interested call me at 954-309-3183.

*OCA Book Club
Info to come
After reading the Cat Tale by Craig Pittman we learned about the plight of the State animal, the Florida Panther.
Sherry Goodman’s nephew, Phil Rodgers, studied the panther
when he was a student at the University of Florida and he will be in attendance to share his expertise.
We will meet outdoors near the pavilion.
Those who choose to attend will be asked to wear a mask and be mindful of social distancing.
Feel free to bring your own refreshment.
Book Club – aka food and wine club AND travel club – all rolled into one! Peter and Jane Vandenbergh have graciously hosted the Book Club for eight years. When the group selects a book highlighting food, the Book Club eats and discusses food mentioned in the book.
Stay tuned – the Book Club is on the move and open to all Ozellians.
Call Jane Vandenbergh for meeting dates and times.
Jane has indicated that after completing the book
The Club will decide on a field trip.
