A message from the past President . . .
The 2009 season has come to a close and I’ve noticed this summer the courts have been busier than any time since I joined the ATC in 1997. Individual memberships are up from111 last year to 140. This has to be the result of Ed’s untiring efforts to get all members out on the courts and involved in matches. I’ve had more than one new member tell me how Ed found matches for them when they didn’t know anyone. They also had high praise for how quickly they were accepted by the established members and made to feel welcome. And our tennis pro, Larry Yakubowski, is always there with a friendly greeting or a tip on improving your game. Larry and Ed complement each other very well.
I would also like to recognize the many members who give their time to the Club. Volunteers come out in mid-April to put up windscreens and again in late October to put the courts to bed for the winter. Twelve members serve on the Board of Directors and meet year round, overseeing Club operations and managing finances. Darlene Wood created our web site last year and has continued to maintain it this year. I’ve called on other members for assistance during the year and never been turned down. All these people work behind the scenes to make everything run smoothly during the season.
Thank you all for a great year.
Bob Wood,
2009 President
