Besides, it s always bette to have mo e people t ying to figu e out a solut on than just a few. I ve include a photo of the ice on the cou t when we t ied to play today. As you can see, two enti e cou ts we e unusable, due to seve al inches of ce bu ldup emaining at 10 30 am -noon. P esently, the NBRC pickleba l cou ts a e now educed f om 8 (a few months ago) to 2. This is ext emely f ust at ng and upsett ng to the playe s at NBRC. I m glad you said that, “ If we dete mine that the shade c eated by the wind sc eens s impacting play, I would be happy to have a follow up discussion to b ainsto m futu e opt ons.” Looks l ke we defin tely need to b ainsto m futu e opt ons.

I app ec ate it. Othe places that have windsc eens do oll up thei sc eens and it hasn t esulted n any wea and tea . Not only is the shade f om the sc eens esulting n shade but n a few nches of ice (f om ou fi st sto m). We can t shovel it because (as equested by P&R) we only use plast c- edged shovels and we take g eat ca e not to damage the cou ts. I helped shovel today and I m going to play at 10 30 tomo ow, so how about if I epo t back on the shape of the ce? Maybe t will have melted desp te being in the shade today . That would be the best scena io. I l keep my f nge s c ossed and let you know. Sound good? Thanks again, On Oct 30, 2023, at 5 23 PM, Schuttenbe g, Scott h g @ l l g > w ote H Thank you fo eaching out about the wind sc eens that we e insta led on the tennis/pickleba l cou ts at the No th Boulde Rec eation Cente this summe . The sc eens we pu chased a e ve y du able and a e intended to stay up all yea . They we e p ofessionally installed, and the metal zip ties help educe damage f om the wind and ensu e the nets stay in place. Taking the sc eens down would equi e sto age fo the winte and having them p ofessiona ly insta led aga n next sp ing, so we've dec ded to leave them up this winte to see how they fai . While I app eciate you suggestion of swapp ng the metal ties with ca abine s, I don't believe oll ng up nets and p oviding ca abine s s a good opt on at th s time. I wo y that olling up the nets would be diff cult and esult in damage to the wind sc eens. I know shade esults n slowe melting times, but ou hope s that once snow has been clea ed the e w ll be min mal impact on play. If we dete m ne that the shade c eated by the wind sc eens is mpacting play, I would be happy to have a follow up discussion to b a nsto m futu e options. Please let me know if you have any add t onal questions. Thank you, Scott Scott Schuttenbe g Deputy Di ecto (p onouns He/Him/H s) What's Th s?

Hi Ali, Happy Monday! I ve got a question fo you ega ding the netting on the Pickleball cou ts. Would it be possible to emove the metal z p t es? It would be eally g eat to put on ca abine s so that on snowy days we could oll them up and let the sun melt the ce and snow. If you look at the cou ts ight now, you ll see that the e is sol d ice whe e the cou ts a e n the shade due to the netting. Eve ything else was melted by noon today. Othe wise I m not su e if we ll be able to use two of the fou ema ning cou ts. Rega ding cost, I d be happy to check with Cliff and Boco Pickleball to see if they could pay fo the ca abine s if that is an issue. Thank you so much, Allie, I app eciate all you help, Ba b
