Hello Everyone, Yay, we are open!! Spring has sprung, the blossoms are out and that means that Memorial Day is just around the corner! My team and I are so excited to get the season under way. Please take a look at some of the special events we have scheduled for the summer and make sure to mark them on your calendar or better yet, register now by going to your Forest Highlands app or to the members.fhgc.com web page and click on Racquets. First up is our Mother’s Day Clinic & Play on Sunday, May 8 from 1:00 – 3:00pm. We will enjoy a fun, games based clinic, followed by play and a glass of some good bubbly! Our Singles Flex Leagues are back this season for all you single’s lovers and juniors in the Champions Excellence and Elite programs. We are hoping for beautiful weather for the Memorial Day barbeque but don’t forget our Memorial Day Social & Demo for tennis on Saturday, May 28th and on Sunday, May 29th for pickleball. In case you missed last month’s newsletter, I would like to welcome Garrett Lackey, USPTA from Banner Elk, North Carolina. Garrett will be joining us shortly before Memorial Day for the season. He was born and raised in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina and graduated with a degree in Business Admin and Finance before starting his career as a USPTA Professional. Garrett spends half the year in Florida, as the Head Coach at the Boca Bay Pass Club. We are very fortunate to have Garrett joining our team this year. He will be in charge of the Junior Development at Forest Highlands, along with instructing the grassroots Adult Clinics, private lessons as well as assisting with our pickleball program.
