3rd Annual Purple Pickle Party to benefit the Alzheimer's Association of IL

We are excited to be hosting the 3rd annual Purple Pickle Party to raise funds and awareness for the Alzheimer’s Association of Illinois. Our event continues to grow and attract more and more people concerned with how Alzheimer’s Disease is affecting our friends and families, so we’ve had to up our game and move to a bigger venue! Join us for a great day of food, drinks, music, lawn games, and of course, pickleball, at our new home in Fulton Market at Big City Pickle. Come to play, compete, watch, or just meet new people, all while enjoying a fun day for a great cause.

For event questions, please contact Cheri McEssy at [email protected]
