To help the CTSC get through the summer and assisting us in all of our food and catering needs, we have recently added Atmosphere Events & Catering. The initial feedback for Atmosphere has been fantastic and Dana and Nicolas Rolland have proven to be a delight to work with. Please plan on saying hello when you see them around the Center and check out their many menu options.
Also, new to us will be Net Results Pro Shop scheduled to open in May. With their second location at the Tennis & Swim Center; racquet, shoes, apparel and stringing options will be available to you without even having to leave the Center.
These are just a few of the many things planned for you this summer. I wish you and your family a wonderful summer season and look forward to seeing you around the Center!

IT'S A GIRL!!!!!  As many of you already know, Andrea has left her position with us in the back office to have a baby. Olivia Michele was born on March 29th weighing in at 6lbs. 12oz.
Congratulations to both Andrea and Jason Gaona on their new bundle of joy. After her maternity leave, Andrea will return to do private training and teach some fitness classes only.
Since Andrea has left us, I would like to introduce Terri Secondino, as our new office assistant. Terri will still be working the front desk from time, to time, but will be assisting me in the back office. Please welcome Terri to her new position. I feel very lucky to have her step up into this position and look forward to working with her.
