Bridgewood Park – Vadnais Heights, MN - After <br />The court conversion could be an economical way to add dedicated pickleball to the city and <br />utilizing the existing Spooner Park courts would be away from neighboring properties and with <br />the topography of the park would offer some protection from the wind, which is another element <br />the pickleball players have to work with since the ball is lightweight. <br />Having dedicated pickleball courts would be an amenity that the public has requested and could <br />allow for additional programming, events, or tournaments. Canadian Days also has a pickelball <br />tournament and this could offer an enhancement to them as well. <br />If the desire is to move forward with the conversion of Spooner Park courts this could be <br />completed in 2024. <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends the Commission discuss and provide feedback on the potential of converting <br />Spooner Park to pickleball courts.
