The City of Mar­i­on is one step clos­er to get­ting Pick­le­ball Courts in Mat­ter Park. The City of Mar­i­on Parks & Recre­ation Depart­ment was select­ed this week by the Com­mu­ni­ty Foun­da­tion of Grant Coun­ty as 1 of 4 orga­ni­za­tions that gets to par­tic­i­pate in the Foun­da­tion’s match­ing crowd­fund­ing pro­gram. Parks & Rec is aim­ing to raise $20,000 to add six Pick­le­ball Courts in place of exist­ing back courts in the Ten­nis Court area of Mat­ter Park, next to the Gar­dens. If the Depart­ment rais­es the $20,000 through crowd­fund­ing, the Com­mu­ni­ty Foun­da­tion will match that amount for a total of $40,000 to com­plete the project.
