As we start off the new year, the ALTA and Tennis/Pickleball Commission would like to wish each of you a healthy and prosperous 2023!  For those of you who are unfamiliar with the Tennis/Pickleball Commission, I'd like to share our mission statement with you:
 
...to review and advise the Board of Directors regarding all aspects of the Sports Complex events and operations.  The Commission shall also review and advise the Board of Directors regarding the maintenance, repair, and management of the Sports Court Complex, tournament and events scheduled coordination, rules and regulation enforcement…
 
To that end, our ALTA Board and Tennis/Pickleball Commission appreciate any suggestions/ideas to improve involvement in our sports and our court facilities.  
 
Over the last several months, the Commission has been actively working with the Construction Liaison and Commission Liaison Board of Director members on plans to provide on-site rest rooms, to replace the pavilion destroyed by wind last spring, and to provide shade facilities for players.  The Commission meets the second Tuesday of every month at 2pm in the Spencer Room and guests are welcome.
 
December 10th proved to be as much fun as the previous year's Crazy Christmas Mixer.  ALTA joined with ALPA to play pickleball in the morning, and then gathered for delicious treats catered by the awesome Outlaw Dining Staff.  Special thanks to Dottie McVeigh and Mary Helen Jordan for organizing and including ALTA in this event.
