Play resumes after 2 full days of work

Yep, after two more days of hard work by contractors and volunteers, the nets and lines are back in place, so play can resume.

On Friday, Bill Winchester of Wauna Tractor returned to work his magic. After filling in the drain rock from Purdy Topsoil behind the two walls, fine tuning the east embankment, and spreading a couple truck loads of wonderful fine screened sand from Lloyds Enterprises, the courts and surrounding area were lookin good. He also regraded the court surface to make it nice and level again. Gregg, Chris, Eric, Andrea, Stephan, and George pitched in with another 32 hours of hard work laying drain pipe, raking gravel, digging dirt, and spreading sand.





On Saturday, another large work party consisting of Ana, Bill, Vicki, Andrea, Toni, Michael, Scott, Eric, JohnV, Dave, George, and Gregg spent another 50 hours grooming dirt piles and putting up the new boundary netting and reinstalling court equipment.




Maybe there's good reason that the City forced us to sign hold-harmless agreements. Actually, the guys were very safety conscious in strapping ladders to the fence and balancing against the poles.
