President of the Mat-Su Tennis Association Susan Brunner said it’s been almost 18 months since the project to rehabilitate the courts began.
PALMER, Alaska - Residents of Palmer have likely noticed the construction in recent months on the corner of Elmwood Avenue and Gulkana Street, as the Bill Hermann tennis courts were ripped up and redone.Susan Brunner said it’s been almost 18 months since the project to rehabilitate the courts began.
“There were courts established here, you know, sometime in the late 70′s or 80′s,” Brunner said. “They were in horrible condition.” According to Brunner, the courts haven’t been refurbished in over 40 years. Tree growth, divots, and cracks filled with tar were beginning to cause safety concerns. “Kids were turning ankles, the ball would hit the line and the line would actually fly up into the air so there was never any question of if the ball was in or out,” Brunner said.
