Park board reviews T-Ball season plans, Fraze Park court options and a sand-volleyball inquiry
Summary
T-Ball applications and team shirts are being finalized with a season jamboree set for May 30; the board discussed resurfacing and expansion options for Fraze Park basketball court and left a resident's sand-volleyball inquiry on the long-term planning list.
The Park Board discussed a cluster of recreation items at the March 12 meeting, including T-Ball, Fraze Park court improvements and a resident inquiry about a sand volleyball court.
T-Ball: Applications are being finalized and team T-shirts will be ordered. The season jamboree is scheduled for May 30. Park Board member Beth Rohrich said some families last season raised concerns about practices being held outside Eagle Lake; the minutes note practice locations are determined by volunteer coaches and did not record a board directive to change that arrangement.
Fraze Park court: The board reviewed options for the Fraze Park basketball court such as hoop count, resurfacing and potential court expansion. Public Works will provide pricing for those improvements at the April meeting.
Sand volleyball inquiry: A resident asked about a sand volleyball court. Board members said previous courts at Fraze Park and Lake Eagle Park had been removed because of low usage and maintenance challenges and that the sand previously used was not ideal. The board did not prioritize a new sand court but left it on the long-term planning list, noting future construction would require finding an accessible location, choosing suitable sand and planning ongoing maintenance.
No formal votes were recorded on T-Ball program rules, court changes or the sand-volleyball inquiry; the board requested follow-up pricing and reports at the April meeting.
