Under Construction
If you haven’t noticed the Club is under construction. Many neat things are going on, the restaurant is being remodeled, courts 3, 5, 1, 2 and the Pro court are being repaired and resurfaced. In a couple of weeks we will have a new roof on the Club Room.
Please be patient while we do this necessary construction to improve and beautify our club. We have made every effort to schedule the work so it will not interfere with your tennis or general use of the club. However, as with all projects there may be situations arise that foil our best-laid plans. When it is all over the results will be well worth the minor inconvenience.
Fund Raisers
We will be having two fundraisers in the next few months. Actually they both will tie together. We will have a Breakfast at Wimbledon celebration for the Men’s Singles Final, with a huge big screen TV, English breakfast, raffle prizes, etc.
We will also be selling “Raise the Roof” tickets which will go towards offsetting the cost of the roof repair. The tickets are $100 each and there will only be a 100 tickets sold, so the odds are good of winning. The prize is a 5 day, 4 night stay at a luxury condo in Mammoth, with indoor swimming pool, tennis court and it sleeps 8.
We will announce the winner at the Breakfast at Wimbledon. You need not be present to win.
