| When asked "Why Sponsor BNPBC?" The answer was easy: Our company is engrained in the Pickle Ball world. We love the growth in the sport and the community involvement it helps create. People love to play (from all ages) and it’s something they can do year round with both indoor and outdoor playing options at places like the Picklr or an outdoor park in the area. We love associating our automotive brands with such a popular and growing sport here at The Heller Stores! When car shopping at Heller Stores, be sure to thank them for sponsoring the Bloomington-Normal Pickleball Club! |
