Message from the Tennis Activities Director

To the Members of the SSFTC,

 

Welcome back to another season of competitive and social play days.  We are looking forward to seeing new faces as well as our regulars.  This year we would like to stress that all participating members  bring some sort of snack or drink to our events.  As usual the club will provide  the main lunch entree.

 

Let me know of any thoughts you may have for a special event or format. Remember if you would like to join one of our highly successful USTA teams notify one of our captains.

Tennis Activities Director

Message from the Pres

I’d like to thank all the members of our Tennis Club for the great turnouts we had for our Fun Days in 2007. What makes a Club a lot of fun is its members’ active participation in such events. Thank you and let’s continue having FUN in 2008!

My gratitude too to our board members; they have made our Club a success year in and year out. On behalf of our members, I’d like to extend a special “Thank you” to Arnold, Karl, Ben, Nancy, Sherri and Liz for a job well done. Your hard work and dedication is appreciated by all.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

Gino Baldisseri, President
