Columbia County's own facility page confirms 6 lighted tennis courts at Lakeside Park "can also be utilized for pickleball" (lines overlaid, taller net). A local news report (WRDW, 2024) separately describes 4 dedicated pickleball courts here. Address per the county site places the park in Evans, GA (not Martinez, as the discovery lead suggested).
