APRIL 21 - 22, 2007 TOURNAMENT - STRAIGHT DOUBLES
The next tournament will be the weekend of April 21 - 22, 2007. This is near the end of the season, but it is still a good idea to make reservations early. If nothing can be found, call Jef or Kathy at 760-767-4536. If you are planning to play, you must sign up by 7:30 p.m. on the eve of the tournament. Sign-up at the clubhouse, or contact Jef or Kathy: phone 760-767-4536, e-mail: jef@znet.com, or if all else fails, call the tennis center at 760-767-0577 the Friday night before the tournament (definitely before 8 p.m.). The draw will be completed by around 9:00 P.M. and play will begin on Saturday at 8:00 a.m. If you want us to call you with the start time, add your phone number with your name when you sign up. Also, if you are just joining the club, please provide contact information, preferably an e-mail address, if you wish to receive a newsletter, and if you want to be listed in the club's directory. If you want to share and consume goodies, there will be a Goody Bar in the clubhouse on Saturday and Sunday mornings.
APRIL 21 - ANNUAL BANQUETSince the weather will be nice and warm, and hopefully the wind and rain will leave us alone, we will use the larger outside area for the April banquet. If you plan to attend, and haven't done so yet, please give Ken $15 per person and tell him steak or salmon by April 15. Email him at jkshalla@yahoo.com, tell him your choice of steak or salmon and that the check is on the way. Make check out to Borrego Tennis Club and mail to:

MARCH HIKE5 people attended the Friday, March 23 hike to Fonts Point. Weather was cloudy, but Fonts Point is always spectacular. The group was surprised to find a film crew from KFMB TV in San Diego, who interviewed the group, even seeing Peg's reaction to seeing the view for the first time. Hikers included Peg Lieb, Carole Stadelbacher, Harriet Schultz, Bonnie Wilson, and Jef Johnson. As Harriet was using a cane, they hiked only about 1 mile along the rim.

TENNIS RANKINGSGary and Jef are having trouble determining which division to put most people. They have decided to break tennis players into groups of 6. Please help them keep it accurate. E-mail jef at jef@znet.com with suggested corrections. The list can be found on the website under RANKINGS. Denny Bean has suggested a tennis round-robin where players can find their own level by going up / down the ladder. We may do this in the next tournament.
PRE-TOURNAMENT HIKEJef will show up at the tennis club on the Friday before the tournament at 9:00 a.m. If any are interested in a little hike (with transportation to/from club and the hike itself not to exceed 3 hours), please show up in the parking lot between 9 and 9:10. If Jef forgets again, and is not there by 9, call him at 760-767-4536, and remind him.

EMAIL CHANGESThe Grangers have a new e-mail address and new Cel numbers. As you know all emails and phone numbers are always on the tennis club website and kept up to date.
NO MORE SNAIL MAIL?Jef is running out of time, and so will discontinue mailing the newsletter to the 6 people (both former and current members) who don't have e-mail. For the past 10 years, both e-mail and snail mail have been used. Jef re-formats and usually compresses the printed newsletter, so as to keep each newsletter under 1 ounce, and this takes about 3 hours of time each mailing. If anyone wants to do a mailing, just tell Jef, and he will provide the mailing information. The current newsletter will be mailed with a note saying as much.
MARCH 2007 TOURNAMENT We had a huge turnout of 68 contestants for the March 24 - 25 mixed doubles tournament. Weather was perfect. Barry Frahm was the M.C. for the Saturday luau. Nancy Shoemaker sang for us and Elaine Tone showed her expertise at Hula. Jim Perez was again eloquent in his emceeing elocution, as always, in summarizing the tournament, teaching us some new facts regarding the ocotillo, and presenting the awards. Harold Plett won the $50 drawing. Congratulations, Harold!
