“To provide support for the care and preservation of the alex rovello memorial courts at berkeley park and to promote, develop and enhance the lifetime sport of tennis. As we headed into the second year of the 2019 covid pandemic, we were also challenged by winter snow and ice and unprecedented heat in the summer. The massive snow and ice storm in february caused significant damage to many trees in berkeley park and areas surrounding the courts. The parks dept did and amazing job clearing the debris, along with removing broken branches lodged in the trees' canopies. Over the past six years we have had these trees pruned twice by arborists. This intervention possibly saved the courts from critcal damage. We planted new flower beds surrounding the tennis court and updated all landscaping, including a large natural stone near the bybee entrance, that doubles as a bird feeder when rainwater is collected. Additional projects completed this spring included repairing the backboard, along with having the courts professionally power washed. These spring maintenance projects assure the grounds and courts will be beautiful for all to enjoy. After 8 years of heavy use the courts are now due for the recommended resurfacing. We look forward to completing this project in the spring of 2022.”
