Civile Apparel
It was an honor for the Pickleball in the Sun team to be out in Santa Barbara, California this past October as we support Katy Perry’s Firework Foundation at her inaugural “Light up the Court” charity pickleball tournament.
More than 200 celebrity guests, friends and supporters of the Firework Foundation gathered at the Montecito Club and all were provided with Civile Apparel swag as they enjoyed the beautiful day.
As seen in People, Katy wore the “don’t be a dink.” visor and all that and more are available online from Civile Apparel.
