TTC Newsletter Volume 1 Issue # 7

Dear all,

Here’s a final reminder to sign up for the “Une Soirée à Ne Pas Manquer” hosted by the one and only Allan-Mai Montoya Garcia-Rojas Lopez on Friday May 28th.

Competitive tennis ups and down doubles start at 7, 7:45 and 8:30 pm. There are only 56 spots available for players and we are already at over 44 participants. If you are interested in the tennis please phone the club Front Desk (647) 381 6464 to reserve your spot [only 12 left].

If you phone and there is no space left for the competitive up and down, we suggest you come enjoy the celebration anyway and participate in our “Best of three ….points ” doubles tournaments starting around 9:30 pm. We have some nice prizes including a Juan Del Potro Wilson Racquet autographed when he won the U.S. Open last year.

PS: If there is heavy rain, please call the club to see whether we have moved the Soiree to Saturday May 29th [Rain Date] at 6pm.
