Cedar Falls Celebrates Expanded Pickleball Facilities

The Cedar Falls Pickleball Club recently celebrated the grand opening of their expanded pickleball courts at Orchard Hill Park, increasing from eight to 16 courts to accommodate the club's growing membership, now nearing 400 members. The expansion, eagerly adopted by the community, was marked by a ceremonial ribbon-cutting, a 'celebrity exhibition game,' and enjoyed immediate use. The club successfully fundraised nearly half a million dollars, with significant contribution from its members, exceeding the city's funding expectations and avoiding tax increases for the project. This financial achievement paves the way for future enhancements, including proposed shade structures for the facility.

Thousands of Iowans start their day with Good Day Cedar Falls

“Reading the newsletter has become a really positive daily habit for me. I read it while drinking my coffee and planning the day. It saves me a ton of time, but it's really enjoyable too. It's great to have the news filtered down to just a handful of critical events everyday that actually matters to me. I also like reading the community profiles. They interview people locally like teachers, politicians, and small business owners. It's hard to find this anywhere else.”

“I'm a senior citizen here in Cedar Falls, and this newsletter is like a lifeline. I don't have the attention span these days to read the paper, and Facebook is a mess. This newsletter keeps me informed, without taking the whole day from me.”

“I like how this newsletter keeps me connected with our community. It's great to have a dedicated source that focuses on what's going on locally. So many news companies are focused on huge attention-grabbing national headlines. But, besides the entertainment value, it's not really relevant to my day-to-day. Also it's great the newsletter is free.”

Business Owner

“I'm a parent, and it's apparent how busy that makes me. I LOVE newspapers (especially the smell), but I never have time to read it anymore. So thank god this newsletter exists, and I can read it in a few minutes. If anything is really critical or catches my eye, I can always spend more time reading into each piece of news, but it isn't usually necessary.”

“I moved away a few years ago. I use Good Day Cedar Falls to keep one foot in the town I grew up in, and my friends and family continue to live in. It keeps me connected to my hometown, and I look forward to reading it quickly every morning.”
