"There's a storm coming Mr. Locke......"

Hopefully somebody caught my "The Dark Knight Rises" reference in the title there (great movie by the way, even at 3:30am). The storm I am referencing would be none other than USTA Adult League Districts, which is set to kick off this Friday. Right now, our office looks like a house you might see on "Hoarders." Katie has stuff stacked floor to ceiling everywhere trying to get everything in place for each of the sites that are hosting play. I hope that all of the league players are aware of and appreciate how much work she and Spencer have been doing in preparation for Districts. The rest of us in office are just along for the ride!

Steve, the IdTA Executive Director, and I had a very productive meeting with some supporters in Caldwell yesterday. I think we are in very good shape to expand Tennis is Elementary into some Caldwell schools this fall! That will be a huge step for our vision of expanding the tennis opportunities in the western end of the valley. If you live in Caldwell and want us to bring tennis to your child's elementary school this year, let me know!!

Additionally, let's help keep the men's tennis program at College of Idaho! The program is due to be cut this coming school year, costing talented kids an opportunity to continue their tennis careers. Call or email the College of Idaho athletic department today and let them know the men's tennis team matters!!!!
