March Newsletter

The March schedule has a few changes: Sunday 10:00 – 12:00 is Member Open Play, there is only one JV Clinic on Wednesdays, no Orientation.  View At-A-Glance here:       At A Glance
 
As a reminder, we encourage you to put together groups to play in the Member Open slots on the schedule, especially on the East courts, which continue to be under -utilized. These groups could be 4 to 16 people and you just take turns on the courts if others are there.  And while we are seasonally busy, please feel welcome to play in your skill level slots, but since there is play every day be considerate of other’s time and do not play continuously in all skill slots on the same day. Please try to spread out play and decrease wait times by coming to the courts a bit later in the morning or organize a group and go to the east courts if they are assigned to your skill level.
 
We are hosting the Club’s first ever Member Beginner Tournament, Sunday April 3.  The format is mixed doubles Round Robin.  It is open to 24 participants, 12 men, 12 women.  Full details and registration will be sent to all Beginner members and visible on the website.  We will also look for volunteers and really hope we have a great spectator turnout and cheering section from the Intermediate and Advanced players.
 
A couple of reminders:
Please do not let people into the courts, there have been more than a few instances of non-members playing – and not as guests.   Close the gate when arriving and leaving.  Every member has the gate code. 
 
The Guest policy that went into effect in January is being used – and that’s a good thing.  Unfortunately, everyone is not aware and there has been some confusion.  This is copied from the January & February Newsletter: We are also implementing a policy for members to host guests.  It is a requirement that the guest is accompanied by a member and the member is responsible for the guest’s behavior at the courts.  A specific waiver is required for EVERY guest visit.   There is no charge to host a guest.  We are going to continue to monitor activity and have an update regularly. 
 
Another reminder!! Spring Fling is right around the corner.  We are just a few spots shy of our maximum limit, so if you haven’t RSVP’d, please do so quickly.  If you try to RSVP and find it is full, please use the Contact Us form on the website to be put on a waitlist.
 
Have a great March – below are the birthdays!
