When it comes to Seattle parks, the only thing more controversial than off leash dogs, might be pickleball. But a growing group of enthusiasts have made their home at one city park. Producer Matt Martin will introduce us to the unofficial mayor of pickleball at Green Lake. And how that community is thriving. We can only make Seattle Now because listeners support us.
