At its February meeting, the Board decided to move forward with the development of a 4-court pickleball complex and an artificial turf softball field in Casey Jones Park. After reviewing the three proposed sites and listening to the pickleball committee, the Board felt that adding the pickleball courts to the master plan and continuing to pursue the vision for Casey Jones Park was the best course of action. The projects will be fully funded through the District's capital improvement budget.
The softball field, which is the top priority for the Board, will be an artificial turf field with fences at 200 - 220 feet. The field is needed to meet the demand for increasing participation in girls softball, and the field will also serve t-ball and coach pitch programming. The pickleball complex will include 4-courts, with space for the addition of courts in the future should demand increase.
The disc-golf course in Evans Park will be temporarily closed beginning March 20, 2023. The seasonal closure of the course in the spring allows for the re-growth of grasses and vegetation while providing a safe space for spring fauna. Some trail improvements on the course will also be pursued during the closure and mulch will be added in areas near the baskets. The course is expected to re-open for play near Memorial Day.
UPCOMING CONSTRUCTION CLOSURE
We are currently planning for a renovation of the campground to occur in the spring of 2023. While we are uncertain of the exact dates the campground will need to be closed at this time, we anticipate construction may begin as early as April and could potentially continue through June. Until exact dates of the construction are scheduled, no reservations can be made for the months of April through June 2023. While we had planned and hoped to avoid a closure during this busy time, project delays and grant deadlines necessitate closing at this inconvenient time of the year to complete the work. We will make an area of Casey Jones Park available for dry camping during the Elizabeth Stampede, and will accept a limited number of reservations by phone beginning January 3rd at 9am. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience though look forward to improving the campground and enhancing your camping experience.
