Our 2023 Tennis Club Executive Board of Directors was unanimously approved at the December 4th Holiday Dinner Dance (see picture). The out-going Board is due many thanks for a terrific job in 2022. The Club came back at full speed once Covid gave us a break and it was evident how much we enjoy playing, socializing and working together.
Special kudos to Peggy Seidel (President) for her leadership and countless hours. Thanks to Akiko Giordano (Master Scheduler), Penny Barcellos (Membership), Liz Kung (Communication Director), Tina Parsley (Treasurer) and Linda DuMont (Hospitality) for agreeing to serve another year. And, a big welcome to Randy Shaw (President), Donna Gilmour (Vice President), Marty Funcell (Court Manager), Roy Pennington (Secretary), and Karen Hillis (Tournament Director).
