Work to rebuild the BHS tennis courts has begun, and we expect the courts to be unavailable for play until early-to-mid April.  As a result, the BHS team needs somewhere else to practice.

We intend to practice at Hillcrest on Mondays, and we would like to practice at Johnstone Park Tuesdays through Fridays, from 2:45 to 4:45 pm.

While I realize we cannot reserve Johnstone's courts for exclusive use by BHS during these times, would you please spread the word to the BTA that BHS would like to use the courts in this manner? 

It's warmed up and it is time to dust off those racquets and head outdoors. Howard Ferguson is offering a clinic on volleys free to BTA members and I will be there to assist a week  Sat May 7th  9am at Johnstone Park. Send me an e-mail so we know how many to expect.

BTA Banquet/ Annual Meeting is Thurs. Jan 21st. Come out and catch up with your friends. It all starts at 6pm at Bambino's in the ITIO Building downtown. We will start out with time for socializing, then eat about 6:30 and about 7 will start the meeting. If you ever have ideas you think the BTA should try you can always voice them at this meeting.

Bambino's always takes good care of us and serves great food. Cost of the meal is $16 per person. It is a good time to go ahead and pay BTA yearly dues. Dues for an individual is $15, Family $20, and for a Jr. (18 and under) it's $5.

We will  also take time to honor the life of Marty Puckett.  Marty stated that he held the BTA President position for about two ten year stints.  He did a great job when he was at the helm.
