Roseville Recreation Authority previews fall programs, pavilion and pickleball courts
Summary
Sarah Frederick of the Recreation Authority of Roseville outlined fall programming, preschool offerings, adaptive programming, pickleball demand, and progress on a new pavilion and pickleball courts behind the Rec Center.
Sarah Frederick, assistant director of the Recreation Authority of Roseville in Eastpoint, gave the Roseville City Council an update Sept. 9 on fall programming and park development at the Recreation Authority.
Frederick told council the authority’s fall lineup includes a Halloween dog meet-up at the MI Dog Park, a ticketed family event on Oct. 24 with crafts and a magician, the annual pumpkin roll at Spindler Park on Nov. 1, and the Big Bird Run on Nov. 9. Preschool and youth offerings include parent-child tumbling, Start Smart basketball, Special Olympics Young Athletes (a free program offered with Special Olympics Michigan), intro and competitive cheer, volleyball, tumbling, karate and dance. For adults, enrichment classes such as charcuterie and cake-decorating workshops were highlighted.
Frederick said the Rec Authority continues to expand adaptive programming, is running pickleball leagues and saw strong interest in pickleball and fitness classes. She noted swim lessons will be offered at Roseville High School starting in October and said the fall newsletter is available online and at City Hall. Frederick said facility improvements behind the Rec Center are nearing completion: “The Pavilion is pretty much almost done. We have the pickleball courts up on the top right that are getting installed,” and she estimated work would be completed in November with a spring grand opening planned.
Council members thanked Frederick and noted participation and programming as valuable community services. No council action was required.
