In a move that has both excited and bewildered students, the third floor of the senior parking deck at Westminster is set to undergo a groundbreaking transformation. Starting next week, the parking deck will be turned into a full-fledged grass tennis court, creating the ultimate luxury experience for the Westminster community. With courts rivaling the quality of those atWimbledon, Westminster will finally gain a one-up on schools all around the country.
The new project, titled “Tennis Deck: Where Parking Meets Prestige,” was announced in a surprise email from the administration this morning. In the email, President Evans explained that the decision came after much “careful consideration” and a very passionate proposal from the tennis team. According to sources, the transformation will be completed in two phases: first, the entire third floor of the parking deck will be stripped of vehicles during the school day. Then, a team of mystery contractors will swoop in overnight, installing actual grass, trimming the lawn to perfection, and setting up tennis nets, just in time for a grand opening ceremony scheduled for next Thursday. The courts will feature a unique blend of natural grass and vintage-style seating made from the remains of old gym bleachers. According to the administration, these courts will be a great place for seniors to “unwind, play tennis, and maybe even settle some long-standing parking disputes.”
However, questions remain: Who exactly will maintain the grass? Will students be required to bring their own tennis rackets, or will there be “loaner” rackets? And most importantly, where exactly will seniors park when the entire third floor is taken over by tennis nets and freshly mowed grass? Despite the mystery surrounding the logistics of the project, excitement is brewing among the senior class. Students have already started speculating about who will be crowned the first “King of the Deck,” and whispers of impromptu tennis tournaments have been circulating through the hallways. There is not a lot of information circulating; however, this has been confirmed to be added to Keith Evan’s master plan.
After the tennis courts at Kent Field were demolished in favor of a parking lot, Westminster is redeeming themselves in the eyes of the tennis team. This grass court will be the jewel of the campus, providing a perfect blend of tradition and modernity. The expansive green will not only offer a pristine surface for competitive play but also will become a new gathering place for students and athletes alike. With its strategic location and stunning design, the court will surely become a symbol of the school’s commitment to both athletic excellence and student enjoyment. For the tennis team, this marks the beginning of a new era.
Stay tuned for updates as we approach the official opening. Until then, enjoy the free parking space… while it lasts.
