Volunteers for Spring Break Tennis needed
Last year, nearly 300 children attended, many of whom have never been introduced to the game. With such enthusiastic participation from the kids, we need volunteers to help with registration, to be lead teachers, to be support teachers, and to provide other administrative and supervisory help. High school tennis players who need service hours welcome. Linda Baumbach is coordinating volunteers, so if you can help for a single 2-hour session or all four sessions or in any capacity, please contact Linda with details on your availability. Thank you for any time you can give to this Community.
