Other: I'm writing to inquire about reservation policy of pickle ball courts at RCA park. On the Bloomington Parks and Rec website, it does not say that these courts are reservable. Recently, however, the Bloomington Pickleball Club (BPC) has circulated information stating that they have reserved all 12 pickle ball courts at RCA for three hour blocks of time. Apparently, to use courts during this time, one would need to be a BPC member, which costs $55. Is this consistent with Bloomington Parks and Recreation policy? If so, I would like to know more about how non-BPC individuals or groups can go about reserving courts. Thanks, Jay

Hi Jay, thanks for reaching out. Our reservation policy stated "Public play on tennis courts/pickleball courts is permitted whenever the courts are not being used by Bloomington Parks and Recreation" Bloomington Pickeball Club (BPC) and Bloomington Parks and Recreation signed a partnership agreement in March. BPC is providing lessons for the Bloomington community Tuesday and Thursday 5PM - 8PM. We are developing reservation signs at RCA park, they are coming soon.
