A Media Challenge Pickleball match was held during the fourth annual Active After 50 Expo on Nov. 5 at the Palm Coast Community Center, and while the Palm Coast Observer defeated the Flagler Broadcasting Beach 92.7 team in a hard-fought match, the real winner was Meals on Wheels.

Representing the Beach 92.7 team was Kirk Keller, director of sales, and Ailey Butler, the 92.7 Morning News announcer. The Observer team was represented by Publisher John Walsh and Palm Coast City Council Member Nick Klufas.

The match was coordinated by Eddie Malone, founder of the Active After 50 Group and a local pickleball player. Pam Hatch, a USAPA Pickleball Ambassador and local instructor, was the match referee. Attendees were treated to competition and lots of laughs.

According to Winnie Costello, senior services program manager for Flagler County Social Services, $125 in optional donations benefited the local Meals on Wheels program.
