Hi
all,
I
am so proud to announce that the Palm Creek Tennis Club delivered a check in the
amount of $3,360.50 as a result of our Cancer Awareness events. Standing
ovation for Nancy Restum and Penny Jacobsen on an incredible
job!!!
Notes
from:
Wendell: Not only
are you filling the tennis courts but your group is also making a big
contribution to our community. Congratulations and Thank You.
Ann Lykens:
$3360.50 for Cancer Awareness! That is WONDERFUL! Nancy Restum, Penny Jacobsen,
you and the entire tennis organization did a great job! Thank you so much for
all that you do!
Diane Gaines: Kate,
Nancy and Penny. This is an amazing contribution to the annual Cancer Awareness
project, and is going to benefit so many people in our local community. I know
there were many hours of work spent organizing, holding and finalizing this
event and everyone is to be congratulated. Tennis is currently the top
contributor this year and will be given honors in our newsletter. Well done!

Tuesday – Happy
Hours
There is a group that
would like to schedule a tennis club happy hour this coming Tuesday, Feb
19th right after tennis lessons which end around 3:30 pm. So, bring
a snack to share and BYOB and come on out to the tennis
pavillion.
Tennis Club Roster and
Park phone numbers
Attached to this email is
a complete list of tennis club members and players and their in park phone
numbers. We try to leave on the roster those who may return to the park but, as
they are not here this season they will not have paid dues this season. It is
our hope that all those who participate in club activities pay dues to support
the ongoing activities of our tennis club. If you have not yet paid your dues
you can contact Helen Arnold at 6865. Also, please know that this roster is
always available on the tennis club’s website www.PalmCreekTennisClub.blogspot.com
A huge thank you to our Club Secretary, Sandy Hurlbert who has done an
incredible job of putting all of this together for us.
Palm Creek 2013 Tennis
Tournament
Our tournament is now only
days away. There will be no social tennis or scheduled play on Thursday,
Friday, Saturday or Sunday February 21 through 24. But, please come out to the
courts and cheer on our players. Ladies are playing from 9-11, Men’s matches
from 11-1 and Mixed matches will be played from 1-3.
Everyone who wants to
attend the Awards Celebration dinner must sign up. The sign up sheets
are posted on the bulletin board. The cost per person is a very reasonable $3.
So please come out, players, non-players, spouses, friends and guests and join
in the fun.
Desert Cactus
League
We have a great
opportunity next season to get some fun competitive play from the tennis players
in the area. This year the Women’s and Men’s matches were originally scheduled
the same day as the Palm Creek leagues. Dave Pratt did a great job of forming
two Men’s teams and getting men’s play moved to Wednesday. Orly Maron, chair of
the Desert Cactus League, sent out a survey to see what day would be best for
next season. I don’t share your email address with anyone so you were not sent
this survey. I do have the results to date and right now the Ladies have the
largest percentage voting for Mondays at 2pm which would not work for our
ladies. But that is with only 10 people voting for that time and day. I think
it would be great for Palm Creek to be able to form some teams and play in
either the 3.5-4.0, or 3.5, 3.0 or 2.5 divisions. The only way for us to be
heard is for me to share your email address with Orly. If you would be
interested in playing in this league and would be willing to answer the six
questions on the survey, please reply back to this email and I will send her
your email address. She has held up closing the survey in order for Palm Creek
to participate. I know that she is also extremely conscientious about the
privacy of email addresses and she will not share them with anyone else. I
would also love to provide input from some of our men as well. Please hit the
reply button and in the subject line put Desert Cactus League and I will forward
your info to Orly and she will email the quick survey directly to
you.
Nominating Committee
The Nominating Committee
of Penny Mason, Wayne and Gwen Black are putting together a roster for our
tennis club Leadership Roles for the 2013/14 season. If you or someone you
know would like to volunteer to be part of this important group of individuals,
will you please first talk to those people and then provide their names to the
committee or be prepared to nominate them from the floor at our Annual Meeting
on Sunday, March 17.
Hope to see you on the
courts,
Kate
