The facilities are available for any personal activities, but be sure to plan for parking.

Tennis
Hopefully you have been enjoying the new court surfaces this summer. We have set up a monthly schedule for court washing to keep the surface clean. Wind, dust and leaves are always a challenge, so please let us know if a court needs to be cleaned of debris and we will send out maintenance to blow the debris off the court.
Pickleball
We are close to having all eight pickleball courts completed, and will have a drinking fountain installed by the end of this week. We are also ordering replacement picnic tables. Lead times can be long for furniture and equipment and I will keep you posted when they arrive.
When all the courts are available, our pickleball Director and Coaches will be trying different open play formats to allow for an even better experience. Please look closely at the new descriptions once we start implementing the new format. Please feel free to share your feedback with Miguel, Tim or Mark. Open Play times will remain the same for now and we are looking at adding another Open Play on Saturday late afternoon or early evening with no coach. Let us know your interest in having this new day and time.
Fitness and Swim
Expansion of the Outdoor Gym
We have expanded the turf by the existing outdoor cardio gym area and will be arranging our existing equipment. The new equipment (Abductor/Adductor, Leg Extension/Leg Curl, Squat Rack and Olympic Press) is scheduled to arrive the beginning of November. We are awaiting the installation of the flooring so the equipment can be placed properly. Long lead times for nearly all equipment, parts, etc. has been a serious challenge for us but we see the light at the end of the tunnel with this project.
