Torbay Tennis Club - Opening Day Sunday October 11th (Moved from Sept 20).

Alexander from Browns Bay

Torbay Tennis club is having its annual open day on Sunday, October 11th. We want you all to come and bring friends if you can. It is a fun day for social tennis with old friends and new people. Let's show them the good old Torbay spirit and welcome the new members.

Kids from 10 am to 12pm with resident coach Jason Hart. Jason will do fun games for kids of all levels.
Adults from 12 - 3 pm. Social tennis - mixed doubles.
Sausage sizzle. Lots of family fun.
Spread the word.

Also for those who don't know Roger Knight retired as club president this year after many many years of great service to the club. Christian Nicholson has taken over as the new club president. But thank you Roger for doing such a good job and showing me the ropes.
Also, Julie Lichtwark retired as club secretary. Julie did a fantastic job for so many years and now we are left with an important position to fill. Alex and Kevin from the club committee are sharing the role in the interim but we are looking for someone keen to take on that role permanently. If you are interested let me know and I will send you a job description.
Our new club Captain is Simon Sherpa. Thank you Simon for taking on that role. The club needs people like you. Simon will be organizing interclub teams this year. Yes, there is still time to get your name down so do that soon.
We need ladies especially. Let us know. Let's get ready for summer!
Any questions call Alex on 0272256488

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
