The POA Board of Directors has approved the start of construction of
new stamped concrete deck and retaining walls as well as landscaping
improvements for the Tennis Center. Basically the existing main deck
will be replaced with stamped concrete, plus additional deck space will
come from the new front sloping retaining wall from the deck which is
at 12 feet above court level to seven and a half feet down at the
walkway, as well as added area where the existing deck will be modified
for easier construction. The events/bar area will be angled out at the
far end of the new deck which will provide a nice flow to the area.
Please drop by Tennis Center for a look at the drawings.
Architectural plans to be drawn

Tennis Committee Update
The Tennis Committee has met with POA architect Wayne Huey at the Tennis Facility for the purpose of developing a drawing detailing the existing facility. According to Wayne, no architectural plans exist for our facility and so consequently he needs to develop plans for our complex. These plans will be used for soliciting bids for removal of the deteriorating railroad tie walls and the construction of new retaining walls. Also, specific measurements will be used for bidding on a new deck as well as determining how far back the two new courts will be placed relative to the Tennis Clubhouse.
Pro Tip by Dan... Having trouble
serving effectively and where you want to? Visualize your serve before
you hit it. Many times you will put the serve into play without
thinking about it at all. Then you wonder why your first serves never
go in, and your opponents are never fooled when they do. Before you hit
the serve, visualize your serve going where you want it and then hit
it. You will be surprised how many serves go exactly where you want
them to.
