Wilson Park tennis, pickleball courts to close for renovations
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. - The City of Fayetteville will begin work Monday, May 6, on six new pickleball courts at Wilson Park, as well as renovations to the park's tennis courts.
The new pickleball courts, which will be lighted, will replace the existing junior courts and adjoining tennis court. This work is expected to be complete by the fall.
The park's four other tennis courts will be renovated, including new surfacing and practice walls. The tennis court renovations are anticipated to take six weeks.
While courts are being worked on, they will be closed to the public. Also, during this project lights will be added to the Wilson Park basketball court.
Future pickleball court additions at Fayetteville parks include Underwood Park (four courts) and Walker Park (six courts).
