Dolores Park is in the midst of a total revamp. The Park renovation was granted over $13M. Yet, there is a concern that the Tennis Courts may be neglected in the project. http://sfrecpark.org/doloresParkProjectPage.aspx
These courts have been a vital part of the tennis community in San Francisco and happen to be more used that the ones in the Golden Gate Park. Tennis is a great way for people to exercise, socialize and have fun! Tennis like many other sports help children and adults improve their physical health, social skills and happiness.
San Francisco has a long tradition of tennis and it would be a shame to see these courts neglected in the scope of the park's renovation. Myself and other volunteers will make sure at the project meetings, that all sport lovers and tennis enthusiasts get heard about the emotional attachment we all have to these courts.

The Parks and Recreation Department is still dodging us while they waste millions on these renovations. I am tired of their silence and I know you are too. Keep pushing because they need to understand that we are not going to let them destroy these courts.
July 5, 2011
The momentum behind this petition proves that San Francisco will not let the city prioritize renovations while leaving our tennis courts to rot. We are gaining real traction and the Rec and Park Department can no longer pretend we are not watching their every move.

way too many people use these courts to just forget about them. hope they listen.
I play here every Sunday morning. Please dont tear them out for more fake grass or whatever the plan is.
these courts are a staple of the neighborhood. keep them open for us!!
Been playing at Dolores for over 10 years. It would be a huge mistake to let them fall apart.
The city needs to stop ignoring these courts. They get used everyday by everyone and we need them to stay in good shape.

13 million dollars and they can't fix the cracks in the court? WHAT A JOKE.
