Out with the Old, in with the New By Mike Lawver, Director of Tennis & Pickleball mlawver@hpgcc.com After 25 years of hurricanes, storms, and wear and tear, our old maintenance shed was torn down in late August, and replaced with a more modern and efficient shed. Both tennis and Kevin’s maintenance crews tore down the “Green Monster.” Laborers from Tuff Shed installed a new 12’ X 14’ shed, which is now the same color as the adjacent restrooms. The new shed is larger, which allows the much-needed extra storage space for our cases of tennis balls and other supplies previously cluttering the Pro Shop. The shed will also be used to store our ball machines, tennis baskets, hoppers, and miscellaneous tools and general maintenance supplies. It’s a much-needed face lift for the tennis department!
L-R: Dick & K.C. Grosse, Martha & Ben Simmons, Marilyn Dorcak, Marti Bough, and Christine & Bernie Chiasson Between The Palms
