“After building our first pickleball court at Tamarack Resort, the sport clearly took off and we found ourselves building three more within three years of the first court. The sport brings the community together and has become a new favorite activity for many of our residents. We offer TMPR’s best paddle, specially designed with our logo. The signature TMPR paddles have been a big hit and our Tamarack community is eager to see the latest and greatest paddle come out each year."
