2010 ADULT TENNIS PROGRAMS
MEN'S TUESDAY NIGHT
It's time to sign up for the Men's Tuesday Night Tennis Group (TNTG) again! Last year's "regular members" get first "dibbs" and it's first come, first served for requests from new TNTG wannabes. Every Tuesday night from May 26th through August 30th the tennis courts will be reserved for the TNTG, from 5:30 pm until dark. We warm up starting at 5:30 pm and begin competition promptly at 6:00 pm. It's mostly social tennis, with just enough good natured competition to make it interesting. All levels are welcome, doubles play. We have an "A" group (3 to 4, more or less) and a "B" group (2 to 3, or thereabouts), and vary three players from one group to the other each week.
After play (or if it rains, in lieu of play) we have beer and brats (and sometimes steaks) down by the courts or up at the Clubhouse. We need 24 "regular" members at $125, and all the "substitutes" we can get for $40 for the season. If you're a returning regular, send your dues to Bill King at the address below. If you're a wannabe, send $40 and a note indicating you'd like to be upgraded. With 24 guys, there are always new slots available. Question? Contact, Bill King 24386 Cody Park Road Golden, CO 80401.
Phone 303-526-0734, fax 303-526-1924, bking3835@yahoo.com.
LADIES’ THURSDAY NIGHT TENNIS
Ladies' Night is a relaxed social program, open to all tennis members, the level of play around 2.5 - 3.0 with some 3.5's. It will be held on Thursday evenings during the months of AUGUST and SEPTEMBER. Warm up begins at 5:30 pm, play begins at 6:00 pm. The format is determined by the number of women that attend each time, but typically there are some singles and mostly doubles. After the tennis, some delicious light food and drinks are provided. A scheduled menu will be posted in the Tennis Pro Shop for participants. A Regular is entitled to a spot every week. With an advance warning, the tennis staff can assist a Regular to find a sub if needed. Regulars should try to sign up early by 7/15. It may fill up quickly and it is based on first come, first serve. The cost is $120. We will take names for substitutes for a fee of $45. Substitutes are allowed to sub only twice for that fee. If a sub plays more than two times, a fee of $19 per time will be charged. Ladies’ Thursday Night Tennis is a wonderful way to get some exercise and enjoy the summer evenings with some friends!
Contact the Tennis Pro Shop or send your name, phone contact, email, membership number, and indicate Ladies' Night "Regular" or "Substitute" in an email to Mary Mittag Miller (prpldancer@comcast.net).
