TOWN OF TONAWANDA, N.Y. — The Town of Tonawanda was happy to share that through a $40,000 grant from the Rotary Club of Kenmore and Kenmore Rotary Foundation, there will be new pickleball courts added to the front lawn of the Aquatic & Fitness Center on Sheridan Dr., near Delaware Rd.
“We are creating a town square setting in this space,” said Town Councilman Carl Szarek, who chairs the town’s YPR Committee.
Crews with the Town of Tonawanda’s Department of Youth, Parks & Recreation, have begun installing two new regulation pickleball courts that will be ready for use next spring.
The gift from the Rotary Club coincides with its 100th anniversary of service to the Ken-Ton Community. “We think a lot of town residents are going to really enjoy the new courts, “said Kenmore Rotary Foundation Board Member Mike Hettler.
“I am proud and excited that Rotary is funding this project,” added Rotary President Cathy Piciulo.
The space will also include the installation of a performing arts stage in 2025.
