CV GIVING DAY IS TUESDAY, MARCH 3!

CV Giving Day is on Tuesday, March 3, 2026. This annual event brings the region together as one community, raising money and awareness for our local nonprofits during a 24-hour online giving challenge. It inspires people to give generously to making our region stronger, creating a thriving community for all.


Through partnerships with local donors, nonprofits, and community members, CV Giving Day is dedicated to the promise of creating a strong and prosperous future for our community. Why? Because philanthropy makes the desert go 'round! Unable to donate on March 3rd? Early giving donation opportunities are open now.

PICKLEBALL COURT CAMPAIGN

Pickleball is not only the fastest growing sport in the country, it is by far the fastest growing activity at Joslyn Center. With an increasing number of pickleball participants, we outgrew the Clark Auditorium where lessons and court play took place year-round.


We began a Pickleball Court Campaign to expand playing opportunities with installation of three outdoor courts in the courtyard between our two buildings. Construction of the courts was completed in mid 2025. Barbara Rogers and Gary Geske generously funded the Center Court in addition to artificial turf and a shade structure on the east end along with a water fountain. The East Court was funded by Dojo Pollock and Rajeev Pollock in honor of Lindi Biggi. That leaves the West Court for the taking!


To contribute to our campaign, please consider a tax-deductible donation. No contribution is too big or too small! For further information or to discuss the West Court naming opportunity, please contact Greg Murphy at 760-895-4651 or GregM@JoslynCenter.org.
