Even with the addition of Lake Park Sportzone, there is a need for expanded and updated facilities in order to remain competitive in the marketplace. In addition to courts for basketball and volleyball, there is a need for additional ice to support hockey and figure skating as well as outdoor turf facilities that would support soccer, rugby and lacrosse. "We need to look at what's feasible and what the schedules and demand really are," Ten Haken says. "We want to make sure we remain competitive." All that pent-up demand has Pistone thinking about growth opportunities. He has the property to nearly triple the size of Lake Park Sportzone if needed. Just doubling the courts he has now would make his facility the largest volleyball complex in Wisconsin. "We wanted to start smaller to make sure we could fill the space," Pistone says. "If the economics work – and I'm not sure about the tournaments yet – we've got space." The Fox Cities will host the U.S. Youth Soccer Region II Championships this month. The tournament will feature more than 200 teams from the Midwest and is expected to generate $6.5 million in visitor spending. S E A N P.
