Glen Allan celebrates tennis court opening
Residents gathered in the park to celebrate the grand opening of the new tennis court here on Sept. 14.
Following a barbecue supper there was fun and games for all ages: face painting, relays, balloons, volley ball and a serving competition on the new court.
The park is nestled beside the Conestogo River and now offers a picnic shelter, an updated playground and the tennis court.
Lights for the court and an ice surface are planned for the future.
The grand opening event raised another $850 to help fund this project, which has been financed with 50/50 funding from Mapleton Township.
“The Glen Allan Parks Association (GAPA) would like to thank everyone who helped to turn this idea from dream to reality in just 12 months,” GAPA officials stated.
Personal and business donations are still needed and remain tax deductible for the near future. Contact Aaron Esseltine at 519-998-9779 for more information.
