I want to report that Tennis for Nature at Regency was a hit. We got spectacular weather and all the matches were really good. Players were happy and we received very positive comments regarding the event.
Everyone felt that combining tennis and the environment is a great idea, and fun! And that we should produce Tennis for Nature events more often and in different locations. The staff at Sports for Nature appreciates the feedback and will take the comments very seriously, and try to work towards hopefully producing more tennis events outside the Washington, DC area. And by the way, congratulations to all the winners in the different divisions, everyone gave their best effort and had a good attitude on the court.
Our next Sports for Nature event is going to be a Golf for Nature event in the fall in the DC area. Right now we are working hard to solidify sponsorships and then we’ll move towards working on logistics for the outing. If anyone knows of any companies interested in supporting this event, please let us know.
As always, we’re also promoting the Sports for Earth Tennis Trips to Costa Rica that start in December. Resort management has recently changed and what used to be Paradisus Playa Conchal is now The Westin Resort and Spa Playa Conchal. I heard that the resort is implementing many changes and upgrading facilities to make the experience of staying there unforgettable. And the best news if that all changes will be done by November, one month before our tennis trips start! Needless to say, we are looking forward to many fun tennis trips to Costa Rica this upcoming season!
I want to remind each one of you to try to be green in your personal lives. Recycling whenever possible, and using less resources in general. Every little bit counts for our planet. For example, an easy way to save money and energy is turning lights off in rooms that we are not occupying inside the house. Another reminder is when you go to a fast-food restaurant, only grab the napkins that you are actually going to use. If you grab 2 or 3 less napkins, and multiply that by 1,000 people, you are saving lots of trees!
Have a great weekend! Go green!
