Good Morning Lou,
Thank you for reaching out and following up. So far to date, we have hosted a Local Fun Day for High School Players at Rutenberg. We have also awarded a player with a Scholarship. I have just received applications for three more scholarships, and anticipate another 5 more. We are hosting a HS Tournament in January, HS Camp in January and a HS Coaches Workshop in January as well. Some of the clothing and tennis shoes donated has been given to certain players. Tennis Balls were given to the teaching staffs for their clinics. Overall, the donations were much welcomed.

Thank you

Paul A. D’Amico, II, USPTA – Elite Pro, PTR & PPR
