Brooke-Gould Memorial Tennis Complex to receive upgrades thanks to Foundation

Thanks to the generosity of the St. Clair Foundation, which oversees and administers funds from the Brooke-Gould Trust, the city’s Brooke-Gould Memorial Tennis Complex will soon receive much needed repairs and upgrades, including the addition of pickleball courts.

St. Clair Foundation representative John DeVilbiss attended the Monday, April 15, meeting of Eaton City Council to announce the Foundation’s board had decided it would be contributing $100,000 from the Brooke-Gould Trust toward the project estimated at costing over $180,000.

“We truly thank you for the generosity of this donation for these courts,” Mayor Matt Venable said. “I think it's been needed for a long time, and I think the public is going to get great use out of the improvements we're going to make down there. So, thank you very much, and thanks to all the board members.”
