Built in 1910 from rugged, local Chuckanut sandstone, the Bellingham Armory wasn't just built to stand—it was built to last. For decades, these massive walls served as the tactical heart of the Washington National Guard, acting as a high-stakes training and storage site through both World Wars. When you walk through the doors today, you’re walking where generations of soldiers once drilled under the same towering timber arches that now house our courts.

But the Armory has always had a dual soul. Once the boots stopped marching, the building transformed into the city’s favorite social heartbeat. It’s a place defined by movement—from the legendary big band dances of the mid-century to the neon-soaked era of the Rolladium, where the community spent decades roller skating across these very floors.

We aren't just the next chapter; we’re the revival. By flipping this historic drill hall into Armory Pickleball, we’ve brought that original energy back to life. We’ve traded the skates for paddles and the drills for dinks, preserving over a century of Bellingham history while building the ultimate sanctuary for the modern player.
