In 2025, Tennis chairs Stephanie O’Leary and Catherine Landry will be asking members to host a fabulous summer of adult mixers. Last year brought back some annual favorites and added some new opportunities to play. Tennis socials are meant for men and women of all skill levels, with more of an emphasis on the social aspect. We are looking forward to 2025!
