Congrats to 446 locals who can claim a Guinness World Records title for taking part in the world’s largest pickleball lesson, smashing the previous record of 250. The lesson took place simultaneously Feb. 12 in several DuPage locations, including Naperville North High School and Sure Shot Pickleball in Naperville. The event was organized for nonprofit KidsMatter, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year.

The golf simulator and shuffleboard table (complete with Michigan State wall sign) are major attractions in the Novys’ basement. Designer Dana Silver reimagined the traditional brick fireplace with a sleek new surround of hot-rolled steel. “We had to get very fine measurements, down to the eight of an inch, to get the steel fabricator to make sure every little detail was exactly right for the returns at the side and the returns into the firebox,” Silver says. “I think it was 300 pounds of steel, so it was quite the process, but it really gives a different, more modern vibe.”
