2nd Annual 'Paddle on the Plains' Pickleball Tournament

Paddle for the pets at the 2026 ‘Paddle on the Plains’ pickleball tournament! On Friday, November 13, and Saturday, November 14, join us at The Picklr for the second-ever Paddle on the Plains pickleball tournament! Grab your paddle, rally your friends, and compete for the chance to take home the coveted Paddle on the Plains trophy—all while supporting the pets and programs of the Cheyenne Animal Shelter. Players of all ages and skill levels are welcome to join the fun, with four divisions to choose from: Men’s, Women’s, Mixed, and Youth. But the fun doesn’t stop between matches! Enjoy exciting raffles, delicious beverages, and visits from some of our very own adoptable (and ridiculously adorable) shelter pets. You might just find your new doubles partner! AND THEN… IT’S TIME FOR THE RUNNING OF THE WEENIES! On Saturday, November 14, we’re unleashing one of the silliest events of the weekend! Even if you’re not registered for the pickleball tournament, you can sign up your fluffy, fabulous, short-legged canine to compete in the Running of the Weenies! Whether your pup is speedy, wiggly, or more interested in stopping to make friends with the crowd, they’re invited to hit the “track” and compete for ultimate weenie glory!
