Recent Updates

Over the past two years, the Rockport Recreation Committee have been working hard to make improvements, so far they have improved baseball and softball fields; have replaced fences, added a new flag pole, added 3 new sports sheds and upgraded the irrigation system, roadside sign and a new online scheduling tool. These improvements would not have been possible without local donations and commitments from taxpayers through the budget process.

Future Improvements include:

  • Repair the current basketball and tennis courts
  • Add pickleball lines to the existing tennis courts
  • Move and replace the current playground to a universal location
  • Build FOUR new pickleball ONLY courts
  • Add lights to fields and courts for continued nighttime use
  • Pave the road, parking area and additional parking
  • Future park expansion
