The tennis courts at Rutherford Park in Wakefield area will be closed for about two weeks, starting around Memorial Day.
The park’s three tennis courts are set to undergo resurfacing work from approximately Monday, May 29 until June 12, the Fairfax County Park Authority announced today.
Unfortunately for local pickleball players, no changes will be made to the programming or layout of the facility at 4710 Guinea Road.
“Rutherford Park is not a candidate for pickleball courts and will not receive any pickleball lining,” the FCPA said.
Instead, the project will consist of “pressure washing…cleaning and filling existing cracks, resurfacing, color coating and lining for tennis, and installing new net posts,” according to the news release.
About $38,000 has been allocated to the resurfacing project in the county’s current fiscal year 2023 budget.
