Pickleball ProjectFundraising Efforts are Now Underway!
- Eight (8) Pickleball courts will be built next to the Town Hall and the Youth Center.
- The Town has donated the land and will ultimately own the courts.
- This is a community-based project for the benefit of all who live here or come to vacation and enjoy our community.
