We had great weather for our Paddle Tournament on April 7.
We had 16 players and our winners were Darla Gonzalez for the
Women and Bruce Ray for the Men. Congratulations to them and
thank you everyone for coming out for the fun competition! A big
Thank You goes to Scott Daniels for hosting the breakfast.
In mid-April, The Colony began to play in USTA competitions
again. The team consists of Captain Tammy Holmes, Jeanne
