Yesterday, we welcomed our new Summer Fellows with a little friendly competition at our Commit Pickleball Social at At Fault! Between the pickleball matches, great food, and team bonding, it was a fun way to kick off the summer. We're thrilled to have this cohort joining us and look forward to all they'll accomplish in the months ahead.
