What's Happening at the Club

Big news for the Tennis & Pickleball court update

We are on schedule to break ground on new tennis/pickleball courts starting this month! The existing courts are overdue for a rebuild and resurface as they are cracked beyond repair. With the popularity of these sports here at the Club – and beyond, we have exciting plans to rebuild the existing tennis courts and add two separate pickleball courts.  

Project overview:  

  • Grade gravel parking lot for pickleball courts.
  • Grade the area next to existing tennis courts for expansion. 
  • Re-surface existing tennis courts with new concrete. 
  • Pour concrete for pickleball courts. 
  • Apply surface coating. 
  • Install new fence posts as required for all courts. 

Check out the plans below and keep an eye out for updates and start working on that backhand!
