Orchard Creek Lodge was completed in March 2000 and Table Tennis activity started shortly thereafter. Del Webb provided four indoor/outdoor tables at the OC Lodge. The original SCLH Table Tennis Club was formed in December 2003. Allan Kiisk was formally elected to be the first General Manager and President. He wrote the Group Rules (Bylaws), officially established the Table Tennis Group, and served for two years.
When the design of the Kilaga Springs lodge started, Allan petitioned and received approval for a table tennis play area in KS. The Multipurpose (KS) has the type of flooring, the level of lighting, ceiling fans, and storage area for tables.
When the Kilaga Springs lodge opened in November 2004 the Table Tennis Group offered playing area with seven tables in a properly side-by-side layout.
The Table Tennis Group membership grew rapidly to more than 150 members in 2006. Waiting lines were established for (1) advanced players, (2) intermediate level players, and (3) beginners. Under crowded conditions, all tables, except one table for singles, were designated for doubles play.
Many people have contributed, and still do, to the success of the Table Tennis here at Sun City Lincoln Hills.
The social interactions, in addition to the healthy exercise, have made table tennis a very popular activity for many SCLH residents.
