Tennis Spruce Up Day scheduled for Thursday, June 5th has been cancelled due to rain in the forecast.

Saturday, June 7th from 8:00 am to 10:30 am is still on! Please say you’ll come help!

Please note that during Saturday scheduled clean up, ALL courts will be blocked off.

Join us on Thursday, June 5th and/or Saturday, June 7th from 8:00 am to 10:30 am to help with general tennis “sprucing” and cleaning! Sign up link below!

Please note that during scheduled clean up, the clay courts will be blocked off on Thursday, and ALL courts will be blocked off on Saturday.

Also, planned is pressure washing and staining of court benches PRIOR to work days. There may be some days where no court-side seating will be available due to this improvement process. We will keep you apprised of the schedule as it evolves and suggest that if you are playing on a sad day without benches that you bring a bag chair for your important changeover resting.

Due to the not so pleasant weather, we will be rescheduling the first cookout of the summer to Saturday, June 14th. 

The pool is still planning on opening at 11am on Memorial Day, weather permitting. See you then!

We are delaying opening today due to cool and rainy conditions. Look for an update at 12:30 pm about opening time later this afternoon. Rain, rain, go away!

We have just discovered that our inside-the-pool lights are not working, and are thinking that the installation of our new and improved pool lights cut a wire somewhere. We have notified our installation electricians and until the problem is resolved, we will be closing at sunset. We will keep you updated!
