Shepard tennis courts are completed!

The replacment of two tennis courts at Shepard School/ Park is complete. We still have soil, seed and straw work left around the courts, but the courts themselves are ready for public use. There are also 4 new basketball goals on the courts and lines for pickle-ball play. We hope you enjoy Columbia's newest tennis courts.

Shepard tennis courts

We have begun demolition of the existing tennis courts at Shepard School. This is a joint project between the City of Columbia Parks and Recreation and the Columbia Public Schools. The two approximately 20 year old tennis courts will be replaced with two new courts in the same location. The 4 basketball goals will be replaced as part of the project and lines will be added to these courts to allow for pickleball play as well.

The fence was removed on Thursday Aug. 25

and the asphalt is being removed today, Friday Aug. 26.
