Act 1, Scene 1
Yup, we're open. All five happy courts. We're having lots of play on a day that may be marked as the nicest day of the year. Come play. (Photos to follow.)
The new club book is brewing. The website has the new, improved, much-changed Rules and we hope to update the rest of the book's info before there is a book. The book will be along shortly.
Some useful links:
Here's a link to the espn site, with pro ranking.
And a club member (let's call him Sol) suggested a link to the International Tennis Hall of Fame in Newport, R.I. The site is rich.

Website Note: The time and temperature icon below is a link to a Boston weather site.
Webmaster.
Website Note II: The honey-comb icon is also a link. It takes the clicker to an archive of all the past news pages so that said clicker can read the news pages for the whole year (2006). The less-than link (<) next to the honeycomb icon will take clickers to the previous issue of this year's newspage. (Skywriter is for Initiates.)
