In a tiny section of the park, a close community comes together at The Tables. These free outdoor ping pong tables attract individuals who share a love of the sport. People of various ages, backgrounds and skill levels became friends first, then the family.The Tables are available to the public beginning at 11 a. m. with paddles and balls provided by the park. Regulars start to show up around 4 p. m. with their own paddles in hand, ready to dominate (主导). Matches become more competitive-doubles on one table and singles on the other-and winners are able to stay on a table until they are defeated. Those waiting their turn can be seen practicing on the sidelines, eagerly watching the game or joyfully greeting returning friends.Deeper than the healthy competition and love for the sport is a sense of belonging and inter-generational friendship and trust among the regular players.They come to have fun, connect, relieve stress and “feel alive”. What began as a marketing tool for a local ping pong center unexpectedly grew into the community it is today.Inspired by the diversity of players and the community they developed, Jon Bunning made a documentary called The Tables to share their story. “I just found it really fascinating that a homeless person could play as equals with a successful Wall Street banker,” says Bunning. “ Thats one thing I think all, humans share. We all want to belong to something, or have a place to feel like you fit in and belong there.”4. What attracts people to come together at The Tables?A. The desire of finding families. B.
