Message From the President:
Well, we made it through the summer and what a different summer we will all remember. I was very pleased with the cooperation we received from our members with the adherence to our COVID-19 guidelines and protocols during these very trying times. However, we are in a second wave it seems and we must all still remain vigilant and follow our guidelines and protocols. Courts still must be booked even though our fall brings less usage so we need to be able to track a COVID-19 outbreak. Please remember to sterilize your hands after play and have the least contact possible.
Despite the lack of social events the club was busy with regular play. There were a few self- organized events and we all loved our two pro weeks with the Kerns. We saw a real uptick in our junior play with more second and third generation play. This is a sure sign of a healthy club and we hope to see more of this in the future.
We will continue to adhere to the government legislation with regard to our courts, look and listen to Tennis Canada, as well as other industry experts for our guidelines and protocols for next season. We ask for your continued support and cooperation and we sincerely hope we will be back to “normal” play next season.
We are including in this newsletter a special notice in regards to a proposal to increase our membership by 10 memberships. Please consider this carefully and get your feedback to the board asap. We will be putting this to a vote before the AMG which is Saturday November 7th at 10:30am.
Please continue to enjoy this rather balmy weather as the courts will remain open until Thanksgiving. You will see some walkway maintenance being attended to around the court over the next few weeks. We hope these will not inconvenience you too much.
Thanks again for your support,
Nancy Bowen
President SSTC
