Donner Park in Atlantic Beach is one of the few places in Jacksonville single players can jump into a game of Pickleball. Some players travel across the city to play at Donner due to its ability to provide single players teammates, its tight-knit community, its free to play, and for exercise. Donner currently has four pickleball courts and two temporary courts. All of which are used heavily between 6pm - 9pm Monday through Friday.
Pay to play companies such as Jax Fray have successfully lobbied the city of Atlantic Beach to take over the Pickleball courts at Donner Park. Courts will no longer be available from 7pm – 10pm every Tuesday starting June 21st for eight weeks.
Friends of Donner Pickleball want the city of Atlantic Beach to know that the community does not want pay-to-play companies such as Jax Fray taking over public parks for corporate profits.
Open space access to parks is critical to our community.
