On Saturday, May 13th at 10:00 a.m., please join Mayor Thomas M. McDermott, Jr., Councilman Barry Tyler and other city and school officials for a press conference regarding the re-opening of the basketball courts at Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Park.
The basketball courts have been closed since August of last year due to issues at the park. The City of Hammond is now re-opening the basketball courts to the public with the hope that the community takes part keeping the park safe for everyone to enjoy. After the press conference, the basketball courts will be re-opened to the public.
