City of Canby Invites Community to Maple Street Park Pickleball Courts Grand Opening

 

Pickleball courts add to Maple Street Park’s 2021 upgrade with the City’s new Splash Pad

The City of Canby invites the Canby community to attend the Grand Opening of the Maple Street Park Pickleball Courts.

Please join the City of Canby on Thursday, June 16th at Maple Street Park, 1400 N Maple Street. The grand opening event will begin at 4:00p. The event will feature speeches by City of Canby officials, the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board, and city staff. After the honorary ribbon cutting, a pickleball demonstration will take place and light refreshments will be served.

Maple Street Park will see the development of four pickleball courts. Each of the courts will be individually fenced with 4 foot tall fencing separating the courts. A black dyed concrete border will support the green and blue asphalt courts.

The courts will be lighted with motion-activated LED lights and a gazebo will be installed to complement the new gazebo at the Maple Street Park Splash Pad. Concrete benches will separate the splash pad and pickle ball courts.

Jerry Nelzen, Public Works Director, said, “I am proud of this project. It has been a fun and interesting process to participate in and I am happy to support the efforts of the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board. The board has worked tirelessly to improve Maple Street Park and I think the pickleball courts are a great addition.”
The Maple Street pickleball courts have been funded by the City of Canby and through generous donations from Dr. Ashley McFerron with Canby Eyecare and Mark and Laurie Shuholm and Family.
