All I can say is it was such an amazing experience. It was the perfect combination of my two passions: pickleball and my business.

Thursday during Field Day, we taught so many people the game of #pickleball. A lot of the people we taught were from another country! It was just such a cool experience to be able to share the game with some awesome people from all over the US and the world! Everyone loved getting on the court and hitting the ball around, even if they didn’t learn the full game in the short 5 minute rotation they got to play for. Several waited in line again to come back and play more! And of course winning the celebrity showdown was just icing on top!

Friday was just as amazing but for different reasons! The keynote speakers to start the day off were amazing. Personally, Jesse Itzler’s talk was the most motivating! His “can vs will” segment had me fired up and is something I haven’t stopped thinking about since. After the keynotes we got to hear from some Chief Marketing Officers from major brands. What they said was a reinforcement of what I’ve known and have been trying to implement in everything I do for my clients.

Then to top off the day we got to hear from Neil Patrick Harris and Drew Barrymore up close and personal.. like when will I ever get to experience that again?! Drew was so enthusiastic and energetic. She was a blast to listen to. And Neil was funny as always. Didn’t get to attend Saturday unfortunately, but saw some recaps and know it was another great day.

Above everything else that I loved about #VeeCon, I have to say that the positivity surrounding the entire event was my favorite part. From all the staff we worked with Thursday, all the pickleball players we met, all the famous influencers/celebrities we got to interact with personally to all the random people we bumped into walking around, everyone was so positive and energetic! It was refreshing to be around so many positive people all with similar interests in mind. VeeCon is definitely an event I’ll treasure for the rest of my life!
