The polls shows that plenty of people want to play tonight, but I don't
know if mother natural will cooperate tonight. We are going to wait
until this beautiful sunshine gives way to a steady rain before we call
it off. But if it does rain, especially if it starts after we start
playing, who is interested in going out for drinks/dinner? Place to
meet? Time? Send me your suggestions and I will include it in the
email around 5:00 with the latest status. Also, send me your contact
info if I don't have it and it is not in the database if you want to
call you if it is canceled after my email, or if our plans change.

Hey All,
Just wanted let you know we had a great night of tennis last night. A
total of 9 people showed up with their "A" game. (OK, some of us (me)
were still quite rusty...). We didn't have any problems with courts,
as only one was being used when we got there. The availability has
always been hit or miss, since we haven't registered as a league or
anything. If there is a problem with courts, there is another set
without lights on the other side of the park to the south west. They
can be used until it gets dark or the "main" ones free up if there is
a problem like I heard about last week.
See you at the AAF tonight or next week on the courts!

Opening night was fun! I'm glad I joined. There's a good possibility
I can get out there on some Mondays, too. I was considering on taking
a few lessons. Any ideas of where to go?
I just wanted to remind people, and I know this isn't the highest
priority on your list (but it should be ;) ) that you can always change
your vote until the poll closes. If you say yes and find you can't
make it after the poll closes, please email the moderators (Helen and
I). Wish I could make the opening night for this season, have fun
without me.
Oh, I guess I should give the results of the polls to determine the
night of play. Winner was Thursday with Monday the 2nd choice. I
propose to have Mondays as rain date if it looks likely to rain on
Thursday, or we know a majority of the people will not be able to make
it on Thursday of a given week due to AAF, etc. I would be up to
playing twice a week if there is interest (if you really want to get
better, you have to play more than 1 a week). Let me know.

All,
A couple of people have contacted me and said they still want to play
tonight. They are willing to start earlier. I propose we meet at
Lurker Park in East Hanover, they have always had their light sh*t
together. And if they don't, we will get something to eat/drink
earlier! Here is a link to direction for the park... every direction
but Rt 10... but there is an interactive map link.
http://www.nsanj.com/park/lurker.htm
Let me know if you are interested in joining us, and what time you can
make it. I will send finally details before 5:00.

Hey all,
Just thought I would let you know that Costco got their tennis rackets
in. They have the Wilson nocde n4 for about $50. (It was the n6 last
year.) It has a head size of 110", length of 27.5" and is pre-strung.
http://www.justtennis.net/WilsonN4.htm
I bought one with a small grip for Mihir, I can bring it Thursday if
anyone is interested in seeing it. Also, contact me if you want one,
and don't have a membership.

Hi all,
I want to thank Helen for sending this out and getting the season
started. I also want to apologize for all the poll emails, but all I
am trying to get is get data for when people can play and how long.
We can use that data to determine if we will change the night we will
meet. Also, I would like to remind everyone that you are welcome to
post to this group if you find yourself in the dire need to play and
are looking for someone... to play tennis with. There is a Member
Phonebook in the database area if you want to add your contact
information so people can contact you directly
(http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/fptennis/database).
Also, as is tradition, I am late in planning the pre-season Indian
Dinner. Please email me days you are available in the early April
time frame. I was thinking of going back one of the first places
went, Palki's in East Hanover. They are the only place I've been to
that provided us with wine when we ran out. ;)
Please take the time to respond to all the polls I put out, at least
the ones for your preferred choice of when to play
(http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/fptennis/polls). We will still
plan on April 3rd for the first night.
See you all on the courts, if not earlier!
