Activity Groups

Looking for a new hobby, sport or just a great community of people to hang out with?
Try one of the many Woodland Activity Groups! 

There is no commitment to these groups, other than pick an activity, sign up and go when they have an event! These are casual, event-based groups that may fluctuate with the seasons. You can try one, try another and another and another! Most of these groups are just show up and play.  You don't need to know anyone. Bring whomever you'd like, and just be ready to have fun!

Pickleball

Tuesday & Friday Night

Time: Every TUESDAY & FRIDAY Night
6:00pm - 8:00pm
Location: Gym

This is a DROP-IN Group! No Sign up required. Anyone and everyone is welcome to come and play pick-up games of Pickleball in the gym! All equipment will be provided, unless you'd like to bring your own.
It's a great way to spend your Tuesday or Friday night with family & friends, not only from Woodland but the community! We will try to plan dinner out afterwards if you'd like to come along with us! It's always fun to just be together and laugh. Every Day Matters.

Common Table

Bringing people back to the dinner table!

Everyday, like clockwork, we get hungry and have to work through the age-old question of "what's for dinner?".   Young or old, single, or married, with or without kids, we have to feed one or more persons each and every day.  Join us to learn a tried and true method for advance meal planning for a week or a month.  Find new recipes, new friends, and new methods for planning, shopping, prepping, and assembling meals that can be refrigerated to eat that week, or frozen to eat later in the month.  In this one day cooking class we will offer 12 meal selections. (You can make as many of the meals as you desire.)
The cost for the day is based on the number of meals you will be preparing. There is one class scheduled for each quarter of the year
 
2024 dates are as follows, all Saturdays; Feb 24th, June 8th, August 3rd, and November 2nd.
