Subject: Transforming Our Community Sports Facility: Your Support Needed

Hello All!

We hope this message finds you well and in good spirits. We are reaching out to share an exciting endeavor that we believe will greatly enhance the athletic opportunities available to our community in Lakewood, Long Beach, and the surrounding South Bay area.

Our local badminton facility has long been a hub for badminton enthusiasts, fostering community togetherness, camaraderie, fitness, and skill development. Over the years, the facility has served us well, but it's time for an upgrade that will take our sports offerings to the next level. Our official start date for this remarkable renovation journey is set for Monday, September 18th, 2023. We anticipate the renovations to be completed by October 8, 2023. We're thrilled to announce the initiation of a comprehensive renovation project that will not only improve the facility itself but also introduce exciting new elements that will benefit the entire badminton community and beyond.

Our Vision: A Multi-Sport Hub for Everyone

Our primary goal is to transform the badminton facility into a modern, versatile sports hub that accommodates a wider range of interests. While badminton will remain at the heart of our facility, we're excited to introduce two new sports that have gained immense popularity—pickleball and 2v2/3v3 basketball. These additions will allow us to cater to a broader demographic and engage more members of our community.

What We're Planning:

Renovated Floorings: Our renovation plan includes installing new flooring systems designed to reduce the risk of injuries, ensuring a safer and more enjoyable experience for everyone.

Expanded Restrooms with Showers: We recognize the importance of comfort and convenience. As part of our upgrade, we will modernize our restroom facilities, adding showers for those who want to freshen up after a game.

Multi-Sport Courts: The introduction of pickleball and small-sided basketball courts will provide new avenues for sports enthusiasts of all ages to come together and enjoy friendly competition.

Your Support Matters:

We are excited about the potential of this project to enrich our community, but we can't do it alone. The estimated cost of the renovation project is approximately $200,000. We understand that these are challenging times for everyone, and contributing to such a project might not be feasible for everyone. However, if you're able to support us with a donation, no matter the size, it will bring us one step closer to turning this vision into reality.

Impact of Your Donation:

Improved Community Space: Your contribution will directly impact the quality of the facility, creating a more inviting and safer space for everyone to enjoy.

Wider Reach: The addition of pickleball and basketball courts will engage a larger demographic within our community, fostering inclusivity and promoting an active lifestyle.

Enhanced Programs: Your support will enable us to continue offering high-quality badminton training programs and court usage opportunities that benefit players of all skill levels.

Upgraded Facilities: Your generous contribution will enhance the restroom and shower area, ensuring a more enjoyable experience before and after partaking in exhilarating activities at our establishment. Additionally, we are thrilled to introduce a newly constructed patio, complete with comfortable seating and refreshing shades, creating a delightful resting area right outside the pro-shop. Your support makes these improvements possible, and we are truly grateful for your involvement

Temporary Closure and Continued Expenses:

We want to be transparent about the process. During the renovation period of 21 days, we will have to close the facility for operations. However, this temporary closure presents a challenge as we will still need to cover ongoing expenses such as rent, insurance, and related costs.

Join Us in Making a Difference:

Your involvement will not only contribute to the physical transformation of our facility but will also have a positive impact on our community's overall well-being. We are excited to embark on this journey and invite you to be a part of it.

Beside making the donations from this website, you can also Venmo or Zelle, please contact us for those arrangements.

Thank you for considering our proposal and for your ongoing support of our community's sports and recreational activities.

Best regards,

Andy "Monkie" Tran
