Pictona lost a kind, gentle soul this past week. Jordan Ferrell’s death shocked our pickleball community and we collectively grieve his loss. We send our sincere sympathy to the Ferrell family.
Please join Pictona staff and members on Friday, July 25 at 6pm in the stadium court. We will offer a few words in Jordan's honor and celebrate as he would have loved - playing pickleball together, sharing stories, and filling the court with the laughter he brought to us all.

The Pictona Jamboree is a FREE two-day event celebration for Pictona Members!
🗓️ Saturday, September 19-20, 2025
The party begins with a Friday evening buffet and is followed by the Pictona Pentathlon! The pentathlon will consist of five recreation court games (see below) aimed at providing time for members to socialize and have a blast! However, since we are all competitive...winners will be crowned!
The Jamboree continues on Saturday with a full-day Member-Only pickleball tournament to crown the Pictona champions in women and men’s doubles (no mixed or singles). There will be 5 age categories and 4 skill levels. And it’s all FREE.
Come join us at the Pictona Jamboree for FOOD, FUN, AND FRIENDS.

Why are those strangers drilling holes in our buildings and around campus?
They are installing the wiring for 12 cameras that will give you a view of all 49 courts. It’s our new court monitoring system. It will provide you with access via the internet to view what’s happening on our courts.
Are players present? Are the courts playable? You’ll be able to call up Pictona’s Court Monitoring system on your computer or mobile device to see all the courts. We’ll also have a monitor on the wall by court 3 and on the building by the Championship Court. The screen will display 4 camera views at one time and rotate every few seconds to see the 3 screens showing all 12 courts.
It's another amenity to make Pictona a better place.
Update on West Entrance Access at Pictona 2
To help reduce labor costs, we’ve installed a turnstile at the West Entrance of Pictona 2. Once the system is fully operational, the Welcome Desk in that area will no longer be staffed.
Members will enter by inputting their membership number at the turnstile and then scanning their card to record attendance.
We expect the turnstile to be fully functional within the next two weeks. Until then, access at the West Entrance will be limited to select hours—primarily in the mornings and evenings.
For the latest updates, please check the Pictona or Court Reserve app.
Note: The turnstile will always allow players to exit at any time.
