Lighted Free to Use Tennis Courts? (Peoria: move, community, living)

[TeacherGuyMi]

I just moved down here and I absolutely love it, but I'm wondering if anyone knows where any lighted tennis courts are that don't charge a fee to use? I'm living at 83rd and Union Hills in Peoria, so hopefully there's some courts close by. I went to the Paseo Raquet Club today, which says it's free to the public, but the snotty 16 year old who was running the desk said it was 3 bucks an hour to use the courts (which isn't bad), but with as often as I like to play, I'd rather not pay to play.
Thanks!

Near Paseo is a park on Sweetwater and 51st Ave. Coming from where you are, you'll turn right on Sweetwater and the park will be on the left a little ways down. I don't know about playing at night, though.

There is a park, Deer Valley Community center that has lighted courts as well and its free as far as I can tell. It's near 19th Ave & Union Hills.

I don't know what your level is, but I've been playing for about 3 years, i'd rate myself 2.5-3.0 so if you are looking for anyone to hit with, let me know!
