We have purchased the land next to the Clark/Lincoln Soccer Fields through a loan from FVSB.
KSC's Grassroots Initiative is to have a carve out of our full vision of the facility to get a portion of it on the ground and get youth and adult programming started while we continue to raise funds to build the rest of the envisioned facility. The initial build will include 4 dedicated pickleball courts, 2 tennis courts with pickleball lines, and a roll-out turf field, possibly a batting cage and golf simulator.
The turf space would help Knox County have its own winter soccer area and allow for archery use and party space. It is the goal to open the space from 3:30-5:30 for afterschool programming for 10-18 YO youth (hopefully funded through grants for youth programming) and to allow for adult access through key fob entry for the courts and turf. The space will also be accessible to the homeschooling communities and KC schools for PE class use and practices through School Memberships. Here is what we are doing to get this initiative started:
