Tennis News ~ Court Upgrades

There will be a community meeting March 29^th at 7 pm at the Clubhouse to explain current upgrades and discuss future plans. Financing some upgrades with donations from community members will be solicited.

The following are already in process for 2006 opening:

• a new gate to allow better access for more frequent rollings
• regrading of the southeast corner of the court for better drainage
• outside curb installation at the southeast corner of the court to prevent har-tru loss
  
  
  

The following are in planning stages for 2006-2007:

· regrading of northwest corner of court to improve drainage

· installation of more sprinkler heads on west side of court

· installation of water fountain on playground side of fencing

· tennis clinics for adults and children

The preparation of the MKL tennis court should be completed by mid-April, weather permitting. Once the court is ready, the net will be raised and the weekly sign up sheets posted.

Tennis Reminders

• Play is restricted to Mt. Kemble Lake residents and their guests
• Use of the court is limited to tennis only
• Badges are required of all players
• Players must wear smooth soled tennis sneakers only – that means NO running shoes, sandals, bare feet, etc.
• Players should sign up for a court ( the court is forfeited if not claimed by 10 minutes past the time signed up)
• After playing, please drag ENTIRE court with the wide broom and sweep all lines
• Please DO NOT PLAY on rain softened surface; if you leave a footmark impression on the har-tru, it means the court is too soft- please do not play!
• Parents, please supervise young children to help maintain our court
• Please do not forget to lock the court when you leave
• Please contact Barbara (7273) or John (0646) for the door lock combination
  
  

ENJOY THE 2006 MKL TENNIS SEASON!
