The BIG news is the NEWPA/Chewelah Pickleball Club has christened the use of two new business solutions. The solutions are a new custom Club web site and a less expensive “back office” solution. The new web site was built and hosted by volunteers free of charge and the new “back office” solution, Zeffy, is free to non-profit clubs like NEWPA. In total these changes will save the Club over $1,200 per year.
In the past Play by Point was used to fill these business needs. The new combination of solutions will generate many advantages going forward. It fits the culture and operations of a non-profit club better. The new web site will provide more information on where and when pickleball is played across Northeast Washington and more flexibility to share news, current events and minutes from recent Club meetings. The web site will also offer a means to attract new members by highlighting the Club’s accomplishments and describe its mission to promote pickleball in general and support local communities where pickleball is played.

Happy holidays from the the NEWPA board.
We are now 120+ members strong, and we have another 100 people that follow our activities on social media.
Starting in January 2025, all pickleball scheduling will transition to Heja. Within Heja, there are teams for Colville, Chewelah, Kettle Falls, and Loon Lake/Springdale. Our website, www.newpa.club, will have the Heja teams and their codes to allow you to see all the schedules. The PlayByPoint application will continue to be our club’s administrative application for membership and general communications to members while we look at alternatives.
Colville is hosting a New Year’s Eve day pickleball event. Check it out on the Heja NEWPA team.
Springdale is hosting a New Year’s day event. Check it out on the Heja Lakers team.

About Zeffy
NEWPA uses Zeffy to handle credit card transactions.
Zeffy is a not for profit organization that pays the processing fees credit card companies deduct from your on-line donations. This means the Northeast Washington Pickleball Association (NEWPA) receives the full dollar value of your donation. To do this Zeffy asks for a voluntary "tip" that Zeffy uses to pay processing fees for thousands of not for profit organizations. Think of your Zeffy "tip" as a way of paying it forward to benefit the NEWPA and other charitable and not for profit organizations.
