PPPA – WEEKLY EMAIL BLAST

In this week's blast: 

   SCHEELS SET TO OPEN MARCH 27, 2021 – CHECK THIS OUT!

SCHEELS, an employee-owned all sports retailer, is opening its second Colorado store in Colorado Springs on March 27, 2021. The 220,000 square-foot store will be home to a collection of entertainment venues, specialty shops and boutiques, all staffed by trained experts who focus on their passions.  This includes 75 specialty shops ranging from technical athletic gear to the latest fashions for women, men and children, as well as family-friendly attractions including a 65-foot Ferris Wheel, 16,000-gallon saltwater aquarium and sports simulators.   

  ROUND ROBINS CANCELLED THROUGH THE END OF THE YEAR

Due to our current COVID crisis in Colorado Springs, El Paso County and the State, and our concerns for the safety of our members, all PPPA Round Robins are cancelled through the end of the year.   The PPPA Board will re-evaluate the decision based on the status of the pandemic after the holidays.  You will be informed through the weekly BLAST of any change in the status of Round Robins.  Please stay safe and take the utmost care through the next few trying weeks.
