62 FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | DECEMBER 2025
The Tennis Club was in the Halloween spirit for its October
Play Day with the players decked out in costumes and holiday
colors of orange and black. Attire ranged from Club President Stan
Lam and New Member Frank Wanderlingh dressed as Batgeezers
to Howard Levine wearing his most recent chest X-ray. There
weren't any vampires or mummies as those costumes would have
been difficult to play tennis in and they're pretty much about dead
people. Of course, there were snacks for before, during, and after
the tennis games, because it was a Tennis Club event and that means
food.
Speaking of food, another event was planned for November with
a Thanksgiving theme, of course. In addition to the tennis and the
food, several themed games were planned with valuable (?) prizes to
be won. How about trying to hit the Butterball with a tennis serve.
The winner can take it home, stuff it, cook it to 165 degrees, and
then serve it. That's two serves and no faults.
Save the date of Saturday, Jan. 17, 2026, for the Tennis Club's
Annual Dinner and Meeting. We will be back in The Courts
Multipurpose Room with catering by Johnnie Russo. There will
be reports from the Executive Committee and installation of its
2026 members. Membership dues for 2026 will be $25, the same
as in 2025, so no inf lation! You can pay your dues to any of the
Committee members: Stan, Chuck, Lou, Larry Z, or Steve. Those
dues along with the proceeds from the recycling project (thank you,
Mike Olson) pay for tennis balls, water and coffee at Play
Days, the cost of activities throughout the year, as well as for
the Annual Dinner for the members.
Please note time changes: Saturday FUNdamental drills and
gentle coaching will start at 9 am on Court 1 during the winter
months. Regular last-Saturday-of-the-month Play Days will have
sign-ins at 8:30 am and play beginning at 9 am during the winter
months. Winter hours for The Courts are 7 am to 8 pm.
