Moorabool seniors made their way to MARC Stadium on 22 October to give pickleball a try. The session was just one of many Victorian Seniors Festival events held locally throughout October. Another pickleball session will be held on 29 October, with a workshop about online scams, a line dancing class and a workshop on bladder health also planned for the same day. The festival wraps up on 31 October with a diabetes workshop. Star Weekly photographer Damjan Janevski stopped by MARC Stadium last week to check out the pickleball fun.
