Story
Dinks & Dingers grew from owner Andy Anderson’s COVID-era pickleball passion into a casual “play and stay” social club in Kentwood. Newco Design Build served as GC, with Veneklasen Construction as steel erector on the PEMB structure. The facility opened in July 2025 with pickleball, Wiffle Ball, and dining.
