The hot weather slowed down our program this summer, however we had some open social tournaments that everyone attending enjoyed. Our Pickleball Committee will be hosting another "hot dog" tournament in mid September. Stay tuned for an announcement in a few weeks.

MRTC - Terry Tedvers - Brent MacKinnon
The ACTC is a proud supporter of the new Marilyn Redvers Tennis Center. Having a year round tennis facility in Aurora is badly needed. I wanted to take a look at the site and I luckily ran into Terry Redvers. Terry reports that construction is all on track for a fall opening.
Flo Murry - An ACTC Champion
Flo was a life time member of ACTC. A few years ago, the ACTC Board chose to honour her by creating the Flo Murry Volunteer of the Year Award. Flo's last service to ACTC was her presentation in November 2012 to the Aurora Council as the ACTC Board advocated for an all seasons, multi - use facility at Fleury Park. At 94 years of age she was as sharp as a tack.
I can still remember the hour and half we spent in her apartment as she asked us in-depth questions about our proposed Fleury Playhouse facility and how it could benefit all of Aurora. She was a passionate supporter for tennis and loved to promote worthy community building projects. You can read her full obituary here. The two pictures below will give you a sense of ACTC history as well as Flo's sparkling and vibrant life.

Fleury Park Proposal - Survey Results:
We are very pleased with the feedback received from our members and the larger response from the tennis community in regards to our proposal to develop a winter tennis program at Fleury Park. There was conclusive and overwhelming support for developing our online registration process and web site and support for supporting the development of a winter tennis program at Fleury.

ACTC Draft Communication Document for Presenting to Stakeholders
As the membership is our most important stakeholder, the Board wanted you to be aware of the proposal we are developing. This proposal is a communication document to introduce and explore collaborations with potential partners. We have initiated discussions with a private sector representative and there is interest in participating in our plan. Here is the slide show we are using to begin these discussions. Please feel free to comment on our web site via the blogging feature, that way everyone can see your input. We didn't include financial estimates as it is far too early for discussing those figures.
As requested by our ACTC Board, the Town is constructing our new tennis shelter that will serve our needs as well as the children and families that use McMahon Park.
