TRANSCRIPT
Letter from our President
Greetings to all, and especially our new members. We have had another very success-
ful year both socially and financially. My sincere thanks to our hard working Committee
members, and you our loyal members who support the Club both on and off the court.
Our recent Trivia night was a huge success with maximum numbers filling the
Clubrooms, and we made a profit of $2,582.
Our exciting news is that we have been successful in obtaining a $20,000 grant from
the Federal Government, and $5,000 from the Yarra Ranges Council to proceed with
resurfacing Courts 1 & 2 with artificial grass. The cost is $41, 214. 00, and the Club will
pay the deficit. Stay tuned!!
HEALESVILLE TENNIS CLUB INC. ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
Monday 14th August- 7.30 pm at the Club rooms
All positions are vacant. Some Committee members are not renominating for various
reasons, including myself, so I strongly request that other members be prepared to
take on a small task, and become pro-active for this great Club of ours.
The Agenda is on page 2 of this newsletter, and the Minutes of our last AGM may be obtained from the Secretary, Christine Wittkopp [email protected]

Senior Convenor’s Report
At the time of writing, our Winter Saturday ERT teams are doing really well, with the OS 2 team in second place and the OS 7 team on top of their ladder. We are now exactly half way through the season, so we need to maintain the good form. If you intend to play Summer Saturday afternoon ERT tennis, you will need to sign up on the sheet on the clubroom noticeboard, or let Alan Honeycombe know by Saturday 9th September. The Summer season will commence on 14/10/17, after the school holidays. Our club singles and doubles championships are scheduled for November, but the Sunday dates have yet to be decided. Lists will be on the noticeboard to sign in due course. Junior Convenor report
The Junior teams continue to have a mixed bag of re-sults with a couple of teams finding it a bit tougher in the higher divisions this season. The good news is that all the players are continuing their tennis development with lots of improvement in skill level, especially from the younger teams and, as always, are playing with great sportsmanship.
If you would like to play ERT Junior Summer Tennis, you will need to sign up on the sheet on the Club rooms notice board by Saturday 9th September, or let Mark Nikcevich know on 0457 769 215. The summer season commences on 14/10/17, after the school holidays.
Working With Children. WWCC is a live document, renewable every 5 years via email. A WWC certificate is required for anyone who has any form of communi-cation with children. ( Oral, electronic & written) ERT have suggested that tennis clubs not become involved in Junior transportation and allow teams to sort out their own transportation to games to reduce parents being required to obtain a WWCC.
Mid-Week Ladies Convenor’s Report New ladies always welcome to join our Tuesday or Thursday teams. Contact Dot: 9737 6309. Rotary Club of Healesville
The Healesville Tennis Club have received a very gen-
erous donation of $600 from the Rotary Club of

Christine Wittkopp our Secretary attended the presen-
tation evening, and accepted the gift on behalf of the
