Best Wishes for the Holidays and Happy New Year
The holiday season is a great time to enjoy the club with family and friends. During this time we expect more reservations than usual so, if your group is not using a reserved slot, please remember to cancel it so other members can play during that time. Also, please remember to sign yourself in and your guests. Don’t forget that you can review court availability on our website on this page.
Board of Directors Election Results
Congratulations to Lynn Martin who has been elected to the Board of Directors. She joins Fred Bristol and Tom Siener who were re-elected. Every year the terms of three seats expire, so if you have been a member for two years and are interested in helping the board keep the club running, please contact the chair of our nominating committee Mitch Stenger.
New Member
Christine Gray Tinnesz has upgraded to a family membership. Please welcome her husband Dylan.
Parking
Please park your car away from the building during the winter months to avoid snow and ice that might fall from the roof.
Playing Time
If you would like to have more group playing time, please check out the current groups on the Master Reserved Schedule and contact the appropriate coordinator so you can be included in their future schedules, put on a waiting list and/or listed as a sub.
Membership Recruitment
While we have a very vibrant membership, we are always on the lookout for new members. Since word of mouth is the best way to recruit new members, we will soon be posting our membership application on the website so you can share it with potential members. As always, please refer potential members to Elaine Idzik or Flo Vach.
Lost and Found
Coats and other clothes that have been left at the club for a long period of time have been removed and will be donated if not claimed by the end of the year. Please reply to this email if you have left something that has been removed. This process will be repeated on a regular basis so please don’t leave your personal belongings at the club.
Reservation Tips
For the best service, please avoid calling the answering service during their high-volume times between 8:00-8:30am and 4:00-6:00pm Mon-Fri. Also, please remember that we have a two-hour limit on reservations.
Facility Improvements
Some of the capital improvements we are considering include resurfacing the courts, improving the summer ventilation, installing exterior spacers along the parking lot and muffling the furnace. An annual member work day will be scheduled this spring to tackle smaller projects and do deep cleaning.
Furnace Switch
If you turn the furnace off, please remember to turn the switch back to the winter position so the next group is comfortable.
Mark your Calendars
The 2nd Annual Summer Celebration is tentatively scheduled for Thursday, May 31st at the club starting at 6pm. Last year we had a lot of fun with great food, drink and entertainment so don’t miss it! |
