Some of you may have noticed the painters out applying the final coat of paint and surfacing to the Roosevelt Park basketball courts. The final line striping was applied at the end of the work day Wednesday and the courts will be open for normal use Friday afternoon after the paint cures for 48 hours. Until that time, we have removed the nets and hoops from the basketball standards and will be keeping the courts closed. Please refrain from walking and playing on the courts until the courts reopen this Friday as it will help ensure the surfacing lasts as long as possible. Thanks for your patience and see you on the courts!
