Thanks again members for another wonderful event. Hope to see you on the courts soon!

Thank you Sheri and Thank you to your excellent team!!! The day was great fun and the wind made it very challenging. So many fun moments because of the wind.
For Example:
* I served the ball and it was returned into the kitchen but the wind caught the ball and it went back over the net to the other side before I could even touch it!!
** Also, I have never had serves land in the kitchen!!!
The most fun was meeting so many new people and playing with so many great partners.
Thank you to everyone for such a "Memorable Tournament."
