BATTLE CREEK, MI (WNWN/WTVB) – Kellogg Community College is asking for contributions to a project that will improve and expand the outdoor pickleball courts on the North Avenue campus in Battle Creek.
The KCC pickleball complex will soon feature 12 courts for recreational and tournament play while serving as the largest outdoor pickleball destination in the Battle Creek area.
The project will upgrade eight existing courts, add four new courts and create opportunities for future usage, including tournaments.
Construction is scheduled to begin later this month and be complete in October. At least eight courts will remain available for public use during construction.
The goal of the fundraising campaign is to raise $50,000 by early October.
Anyone who would like to donate toward the cost of the $160,000 project may do so online at kellogg.edu/pickleball.
Those who want to donate by cash or check may do so by addressing their gift to: Kellogg Community College, c/o Pickleball Project Fund, 450 North Ave., Battle Creek, MI 49017.
