Courts are cracked. Lets rebuild them.
Dedicated Courts │ 50% Committed for Rebuild
Wellington Park is home to Rindge’s only public outdoor tennis and pickleball courts used by youth, families, older adults, and residents of all abilities. Today, those courts are cracked and deteriorating. The Town has committed $100,000 and three generous donors have pledged or given an additional $55,000 to bring the total of committed funding to $155,000. We need to raise $145,000 more to reach our $300,000 goal and deliver new, dedicated courts by Summer 2027. Every dollar you give to the Wellington Park Courts Fund goes into a restricted account and can only be used for this project.

Reconstruction - Not repair
The existing courts at Wellington Park have surface cracks up to 2 inches wide, deteriorating net posts, and active safety warnings posted on-site by Rindge Recreation. Patching is no longer viable the base has failed and reconstruction is the only durable solution.
