Plans are to eventually add an affordable covered picnic area with a fire-pit and picnic tables in the center area,
plus there will be plenty of room for other activities. As a matter of fact- we are working on setting up a volleyball/badminton
area along with a tetherball setup! It is going to be a great place for the kids to play safely off the streets and for our
community gatherings.
We looked into activities like skating, biking and skateboarding. Unfortunately those sports would damage the new surface
and cannot be allowed, but there are many other things your family, friends, tenants, etc can enjoy in the new LRR rec area.
Golf shoes will also damage the courts. Wearing shoes that have non-marking outsoles will help keep the entire area looking
sharp and new.
A very important point regarding the resurfacing of the court is that THE CRACKS WILL COME BACK. The foundation was done
incorrectly and with constant temperature changes, there is no help for that. The company provided us with a putty concrete
mixture in both the green and beige colors. Each spring (or whenever a larger crack starts to re-appear) we will fill in the
cracks with the matching mixture. It will keep the surfaces useable, playable and looking good while we start a reserve account
to eventually replace the courts. We expect this option to last 4-5 years.
