Clifton Park Welcoming New Indoor Pickleball Club
Pickleball enthusiasts will soon have an indoor place to play during the colder months, thanks to retired educator and coach Steve Frye. Frye is launching a 3-court, indoor pickleball club inside a 9,000-square-feet warehouse at 1319 Route 146, close to Ravenwood Restaurant, reports Pickleball518.com.
Players can expect the courts to feature portable nets and generous spacing between the play areas. While this will be a club for members, Frye also envisions local students, schools, and instructors making use of the space.
The opening date goal of December 6 has been delayed, but updates via Facebook confirm construction is moving forward, and they'll be ready to open in the near future.

Clifton Park Center Plans Big Additions and Easier Access
Clifton Park Center is gearing up for a major refresh with a full lineup of new retailers and attractions on the way. The shopping center will introduce a mix of dining, shopping, and family friendly options designed to bring more energy to the area.
New arrivals include Sephora, Cold Stone Creamery, Wetzel’s Pretzels, Five Below, Herbie’s Burgers, J. Crew Factory, and an Asian fusion restaurant. An 8,000 square foot indoor play area is also in the works, giving families a new place to spend time throughout the year.
Most of the incoming stores will feature exterior entrances. This setup will make it easier for shoppers to stop in directly from the parking lot without navigating the interior mall.
Outside the center, crews will begin work on a new roundabout at the entrance where Clifton Park Center Road meets Sitterly Road near Bass Pro Shops. The change is expected to improve traffic flow and make access smoother as the area grows busier.
Additional road improvements will follow once the roundabout is complete. With new retailers, added entertainment, and upgraded infrastructure, Clifton Park Center is positioning itself as a lively destination for shopping, dining, and family outings by early 2026.
