The City of Vero Beach Recreation Dept. has signed off on the facility. We are good to go Monday night from 6PM to 9PM. Hope we see you there! The Riverhouse 305 Acacia Road Vero Beach FL 32963 The club will supply good quality 3-star balls for play. There are also some extra paddles available for use, but if you're going to be a regular, you will probably want to get your own. Play will be free the first night. After that, as all TT clubs do, we'll need to charge a few bucks to cover the facility rental. It won't be expensive though. Update: The tables are here.

There is a possibility of a location in Vero Beach on Monday nights or in Sebastian. I have ordered three tables which will arrive the last week in July, so if all goes as planned we will finally have a table tennis club in our area. I will post more soon.

They might be able to accommodate. Also, I have just learned that table tennis is a very good sport for people with dementia, and would suggest you contact Alzheimer Association in Vero Beach.

I am very good at it. I live in Sebastian and I wish there was a place to play table tennis somewhere in Indian River County. I love to play table tennis. I am very good at it.

Since July 2010 when I started the attempt to establish a table tennis club in Vero Beach, I'm gotten an enthusiastic response from local players, but zero cooperation from City and County officials in the search for a club location. I've also had no luck finding a private meeting hall or church/school gym who will step up. I thought local officials would be proud to have an official USATT-affiliated table tennis club in Vero Beach and Indian River County, but apparently they see no need for civic involvement in a healthful, lifetime sport that benefits and brings together young and old. All I am asking for is a few nights a week of usage with a secure space for table storage. I don't consider this unreasonable considering that out of my own pocket I am willing to buy up to four professional quality tables for the use of players in our community. I will leave this offer on the table until July 1, 2011. Just a little update.

We Could host a Tournament sometime for 5-10 players. We also got some premium o.g Kush x Hindu Kush x cali kush. So if we do have a tourny no alcohol allowed but it is more than acceptable to BYOK (BRING YOUR OWN KRYPTO) Yo What up wit ya Cuz, The Homey Bryan (B-DUBS) Walsh, and me just went down to stuart today (4:20) and picked up a kettler table used five times pretty much brand new for 50$ We also got 200 Four star balls.
