TENNIS
Rules, Policies & Fees

Tennis Anyone?

Spring is here and we are getting close to the outdoor tennis season.

Maintenance on the HarTru courts has been contracted and should be completed by
the 19th of April. The courts then need to be rolled and watered for a week without
any play; so the nets will not be put up until the end of April.

The Board is pleased that John and Laurie Mercer will be returning with their staff this year.
There is a new agreement with the Mercers that addresses nonmember usage of our facilities which hopefully will benefit both the tennis program and the club. In addition, the club’s policy of allowing Resident and Social members to bring a guest to play tennis a total of 6 times during the year will be strictly enforced.

To try to accommodate members who have nonmember friends who have been using the tennis facilities more than 6 times during a year, as well as others in the community, we have adopted a tennis membership on a trial basis for this coming season. The cost will be $1000 for a family or
$550 individual. There will be no initiation fee or dues; however, it will not include any club facilities except for tennis. If you have friends that might be interested, Jamie Goad or Morris Blair can give you details.

We have planned a tennis social in the parlor of the clubhouse for Wednesday, April 23 from 7PM-8:30PM to address any questions about changes and also planned tournaments that will be organized by Alan Morrison for this coming year. I look forward to seeing you.
