Fundraising opens for new Dryden pickleball court
The City of Dryden will pledge over $12,500 for the construction of a new permanent pickleball court.
City council expects the total cost to be $650,000. The rest of the funding will be collected via community donation by the Dryden Pickleball Club, who will start it’s fundraising campaign soon. Any cost overrun will also be covered by the city.
In it’s application, the club cited the growth of the sport within the community and the need to replace current courts at Milestone Park.
Council voted to move the application forward at their meeting Monday night.
Director of Community Services Joel Allen says potential concerns of light or noise will be mitigated by the city and the club to the best of their ability.
