Your Tax Dollars at Work

Have you seen this? We are excited to announce the latest enhancements to Zupp Park, including the installation of brand- new pickleball courts!

Pickleball is a rapidly growing sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong, and these courts will provide a fun and engaging recreational option for our community members of all ages.

The new pickleball courts are part of our ongoing efforts to improve and expand recreational facilities in our city. These courts are designed to accommodate players of various skill levels, from beginners to experienced players. The addition of these courts will not only promote physical activity but also foster a sense of community as residents gather to enjoy this popular sport.

We invite everyone to visit Zupp Park and take advantage of this new feature. Whether you are a seasoned player or new to the game, the pickleball courts offer an excellent opportunity to get outdoors, stay active, and connect with others in the community.
