About
The new pickleball court in Boothbay Harbor is a smash hit as nearly two dozen players convene twice a week for a game or two, or eight. Local residents lobbied Boothbay Harbor officials to create pickleball courts five years ago at the former tennis court location. Boothbay Harbor responded by building an outdoor basketball and adjacent pickleball court. So far, the public has flocked to the new court and even used a bit of ingenuity in creating a couple more temporary ones. On Tuesday and Thursday mornings, year round and seasonal residents congregate on four courts at the intersection of Emery Lane and Townsend Avenue for recreation and socializing. Last year, the summer outdoor group drew about 16 people. Now the games are drawing about 24 to each bi-weekly session, according to Merritt Blakeslee of Boothbay Harbor. In Boothbay Harbor, the new courts see a steady stream of regular players. It's a diverse group who enjoys playing the game and the social aspect.
