UPDATE: The Lānaʻi Fifth Street Courts have officially reopened today, bringing a fresh wave of excitement and recreational opportunities to residents of Maui County. The upgraded facility, managed by the Department of Parks and Recreation, is set to enhance community sports with modern amenities for multiple activities, including pickleball, tennis, volleyball, and basketball.
The renovations, which began in January 2023, were aimed at providing safe and high-quality recreational facilities for the community. Key upgrades include newly resurfaced courts, a state-of-the-art lighting system, and ADA-compliant features that ensure accessibility for all. The previous lighting system had been out of service since 2014, limiting playtime options. With the new lighting, residents can now enjoy matches during early morning and evening hours.
Additional enhancements include new fencing, windscreens, and essential sports equipment such as nets for pickleball and tennis, alongside basketball hoops and backboards. A significant feature of the renovation is the installation of an ADA-accessible water fountain that includes a water bottle refill station, promoting hydration during activities.
Residents and sports enthusiasts can now take advantage of this upgraded facility, which not only fosters community engagement but also encourages a healthy lifestyle. The Department of Parks and Recreation emphasizes the importance of providing Lānaʻi residents with modern and safe environments for recreation.
For those seeking more information about the upgraded facilities or the upcoming community events, the Department of Parks and Recreation encourages visits to their website or direct contact with the Planning and Development Division at (808) 270-7931.
This grand reopening marks a significant step forward for Lānaʻi, enhancing community pride and offering a vibrant space for residents to engage in sports and recreational activities. Don’t miss out on being part of this exciting new chapter in local recreation!
