I am writing this e-mail in support of the petition to rezone property located at the Pennwood Office Park in Carmel,
Indiana.
I just started playing pickleball 6 months ago and loving the sport. I currently play 3-5 times per week in Carmel and
the surrounding area. I have found that it is difficult to find facilities that offer indoor pickleball court times that are on
dedicated pickleball courts. A great majority of the facilities offer pickleball on basketball courts and/or share court
time with tennis or other sports, such as basketball. It is especially difficult to find court times in the evenings during
the week and on weekends, which is needed for people that work full time during normal business hours. With the
weather we have in Central Indiana (rain, wind and snow), the ability to play pickleball indoor is much needed at least
4 or 5 months of the year.
This facility is important to our community because Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in the United States and
pickleball courts are in huge demand at this time. I would love the opportunity to play indoor pickleball in this new
facility and fully support this petition so that a new pickleball facility can be built.
Kind regards,
Chi H. Nguyen
