Town of Avon to hold Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for new courts in Harry A. Nottingham Park
Avon, CO – The Town of Avon would like to invite community members to join in a celebration and ribbon cutting ceremony for the newly remodeled Harry A. Nottingham Park Courts on Tuesday, August 23 from 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. The event will take place at the courts adjacent to Avon Elementary School. Attendees can expect a short ceremony, music, prize drawings, pickleball paddle demos and open play.
The pickleball and tennis courts opened to the public on Saturday, August 6 and they have already seen heavy use. Unfortunately, there was a delay in receiving the basketball backboards and poles, but the two basketball courts are expected to open by the end of August. The Town now has six pickleball courts, two tennis courts and two basketball courts completely open to the public. Use is on first come first serve basis with organized, drop-in pickleball occurring daily from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
