New pavilion… an ace

PEARCEDALE tennis goers can rally around once more with redevelopments to the local pavilion now completed.
Works to the Pearcedale Recreation Reserve Tennis Club Pavilion are now complete with the City of Casey Mayor Mick Morland officially opening an ace new facility on Monday 2 March following the $620,000 upgrade.
Council replaced the old pavilion with a new communal area, kitchen, accessible toilets, changing rooms and two storage areas included in the new facility.
Councillor Mick Morland commended council for the completed works in Pearcedale.
“The old pavilion no longer met the expectations of the community, so the old building was torn down and this fantastic new facility built in its place,” he said.
“The project demonstrates council’s commitment to providing excellent facilities for local clubs and the community to engage in sport and physical activity.”
He also added that council acknowledged the importance of sustainable sporting facilities in the area.
“Clubs, like the Pearcedale Tennis Club, play an important role in creating a strong community, as well as maximising opportunities for residents, and we are keen to see them succeed,” he said.
“The new pavilion has already been used to host a number of club functions, including the junior presentation night, and it is fantastic to see it being embraced by the club.”
