Support The Courts
The mission of Support The Courts is to rebuild and revitalize the Beulah courts, and keep playing, laughing, and connecting lakeside.
About Support The Courts:
Support The Courts is a community-powered grassroots movement with one shared mission: rebuild and resurface the Village of Beulah’s courts for everyone who gathers by the lake.
STC is a growing team of civic-minded neighbors, local and visiting players, and dedicated supporters committed to finishing what we started—raising the remaining funds through monthly appeals and providing regular project updates to bring durable, safe courts to our community.

Inspired Giving Is Spreading — Join the Momentum
“Watching the donations grow—and seeing others step forward— inspired us to do more.”
That inspiration led one Beulah family, whose roots trace back generations of summers here, to take action.
They’ve committed:
$5,000 personally
$5,000 through their employer match
Unlocking a $10,000 dollar-for-dollar match for our community.
With $58,000 already raised, we’re within reach of completing Phase I of the Beulah courts rebuild, but timing matters.
Every gift made now is doubled. And for many, even tripled through employer matching.
This is how momentum builds:
One neighbor gives… and another follows.
Together, we’re restoring more than courts! We’re preserving a place where friendships form, families gather, and community thrives.
The match is live. The momentum is real.
Join the movement and help bring this across the finish line.

Founding Supporters
(2022 - October 2025)
Founding Supporters are the early believers who stepped forward when the need first emerged. Beginning in 2022, their collective generosity, culminating $40,000 in early contributions—sparked what would become Support the Courts (STC): Act II and made this community-powered movement possible. Their leadership giving created momentum, inspired broader participation, and laid the groundwork for the progress we celebrate today. We honor these supporters with deep appreciation for helping turn vision into action.
Where Play, Connection, and Community meet Gratitude
This project exists because of neighbors and visitors who care. We gratefully acknowledge the donors, advocates, and volunteers who have supported the ongoing effort to rebuild and revitalize the Beulah Courts. Their generosity and encouragement have laid the foundation for Phase 1 in 2026, with additional phases to follow as funds become available. If you are considering getting involved, we encourage you to reach out to any of the individuals listed here. Their participation reflects the fellowship, stewardship, and community spirit behind this initiative.
Thank you for being part of what makes Beulah a place to gather, play, and connect.
Thank You to Our Supporting Businesses and Nonprofit Partners.
Endorsed by the Benzie Sunrise Rotary Foundation — your grant support is helping carry this project to the finish line.
Thank You to Our Match-Unlocking Donors
