Tennis courts get makeover at Lake Junaluska
Renovated tennis courts will greet Lake Junaluska visitors this summer season.
Donors provided for resurfacing, repainting, new chain-link fencing and new nets, as well as new pickelball lines on two courts. The renovations totaled about $95,000.
“Tennis has meant a lot to our family over the years,” said Joe Taft, a donor and longtime Junaluskan whose grandparents bought a house at the lake in 1919. “We’ve supported it at the lake because it’s a great way to get exercise and it’s just been an all-around important part of our life.”
This summer, the Lake Junaluska tennis courts will be available to tennis and pickleball players on a first-come, first-served basis from 8 a.m. until 8 p.m.
