TennisCourt_drawingThe Plymouth Tennis Club and the City of Plymouth announce a pause in their development of a new tennis facility in Centennial Park.
For the past several years the Plymouth Tennis Club’s Project Committee has worked to build new tennis courts for the city. This year, through partnership with the City of Plymouth, the Plymouth Community School Corporation, and private donors, the Committee has made great strides toward its goal. With the Committee’s work and the generous support of numerous individuals and businesses, over $223,900 in private contributions have been raised toward the project. And comprehensive design plans for the courts were produced and approved by the Plymouth Park Board.
Throughout the process, the Plymouth Tennis Club and the City of Plymouth have sought input from various community members. In recent weeks, many questions have been raised regarding the project. The Plymouth Tennis Club and the City of Plymouth have heard the community’s questions, including those posed by their important partners at the Marshall County Blueberry Festival, a valued part of Plymouth’s history since 1966. This pause will allow the organizations to better address remaining questions before moving forward. The project will not be on the agenda for the Monday, August 11thCity Council meeting.
Tennis project planning, fundraising, and communication continues. More information about the project is available at www.plymouthtenniscourts.com .
