Help paint the Dike West basketball court! Join us for a day of color and community at Dike West!

In celebration of National Parks & Recreation Month, we’re transforming one of the basketball courts into a colorful community art piece, and we need your help to bring it to life. 

On Thursday, July 17, painters ages 8 and up are invited to stop by the Dike West basketball court anytime between 10:00 am and 6:00 pm to join the painting fun.

This will be a paint-by-number style mural, so no artistic experience is needed, just follow the colors and help fill in the design. All supplies, paint, and a mural template will be provided. Just bring your paint clothes, a positive attitude, and be ready to make your mark. 

We’ll be celebrating the finished court with a Movie on the Court on Wednesday, July 23 at 6:00 pm, featuring Space Jam: A New Legacy.
