Mundare Parks Society Constructs Pickleball Court

For the past three years members of the Mundare Parks Society have been raising funds to build a pickleball court in the community, and on Aug. 23 Centerline Paving were completing base work on the project.
Line painting has yet to be completed. Town of Mundare Chief Administrative Officer Colin Zyla was unsure as to when that would be done. The town previously donated $5,000 to the Mundare Parks Society for the project.
The Mundare Parks Society has been in existence for approximately 17 years and has been instrumental in the completion of several recreational projects in the community. Society President Trisha Ming-Brison said it started with the spray park, which is also located in the Quentin Warawa Memorial Park, along with a skate park.
“That was our biggest project and cost us approximately $250,000. We then put in a Skate Park that cost approximately $55,000. We then filled the demand for a park structure in Whitetail, (subdivision), and added a toddler play structure at the Spray Park. The total of those two projects was approximately $65,000.”
