Parks get spruced up for spring

Crews in the West Kelowna are springing into action as they prepare outdoor spaces for the public to enjoy.

That includes upgrades to parks and playgrounds, opening sports courts and athletic fields and sweeping streets.

The Boucherie and Lakeview pickleball courts, along with tennis courts throughout the city, are now open for the season, as are the beach volleyball courts, the skate park, seasonal restroom buildings and portable washrooms.

Sports fields will open Friday, April 15, weather dependent.

The Kids Care Spray Park will open in mid-May before Victoria Day long weekend, also if the weather allows.

Parks users may occasionally find some areas temporarily out of bounds over the next several weeks as crews trim trees and conduct cleaning and repairs.
