Hello club members –

Since sending out the recent Board minutes which included the proposed on-season schedule, we have had some people come forward with the opinion that we should just leave the current schedule in place. Therefore, we would like to put the decision up to a vote by all club members.

Attached you will find both the Proposed On-season Schedule for Summer 2023 (chart #1) and the Current Schedule with modifications for Summer 2023 (chart #2). Please review both charts carefully and read through the Pros/Cons. THIS INFORMATION WILL NOT BE INCLUDED ON THE SURVEY MONKEY VOTING BALLOT.

When you get the Survey Monkey voting ballot shortly via email from the CFPOA, please complete it ASAP. If for some reason you receive the ballot multiple times, please only vote once. If you receive a ballot and are NOT a full or part time Connestee Falls resident or own an amenities membership which allows you to play pickleball at our facility, please do not vote. If you would like us to remove your email from our database, let us know that as well.

Reasons to use the Proposed On-Season Schedule (chart below):

• Our facility hours are 8am-8pm daily. Using this schedule allows for the maximum amount of reservable blocks in Sign Up Genius during all of these hours (34 blocks versus 27 with the current schedule)
• During the hotter summer months, starting the daily schedule an hour earlier allows for community play earlier in the day when temperatures are cooler
• Once we have changed to Daylight Savings Time, light/darkness does not affect your ability to play during our 8am-8pm facility hours

Proposed On-Season Pickleball Schedule (beginning May 1, 2023)

Reasons for using the Current schedule with modification for Summer 2023 (chart below):

• Some players like the 9am start time because it allows them to come early, get warmed up and have extra play time from 8am-9am prior to their reservation.
• All Play starting at 8am is too early. Players tend to wander in more toward 9am
• Using the same schedule eliminates confusion of play times throughout the year

*Please note that All Play in EITHER schedule during the summer will take place on Courts 1-6. There will be NO WALK-ON PLAY on Courts 5 & 6 during daily All Play times.
