Tennis Festival was Hit for Community

Prescott, AZ (December 12, 2012) – In honor of past and present military personnel and their families, the Northern Arizona and Prescott Area Tennis Associations hosted a free tennis festival on Veterans Day.

Our free raffle consisted of adult and children tennis racquets and balls, as well as many tennis accessories valued at more than $200.

With the help of local businesses and tennis people, the event was a fun time for all. Thank you to our local tennis friends Sarah Moglewer, who coordinated the event, along with Allison Wood, Chris Howard, Sue Lord, Sara Brown and Edna and Sid Moglewer who assisted with the on-court activities, raffle, snacks, and welcome desk.

Our thanks go out to Trader Joes, Chase Bank-downtown Prescott, Big 5 Sporting Goods, Costco, Gail Gardner Walmart and Method Coffee for providing prizes, snacks, and items for our free raffle. Iron Springs Starbucks donated a gift basket that was raffled and brought in $40 for our tennis scholarship fund. Special thanks to the Northern Arizona Tennis Association and the USTA Southwest Section for donating all the tennis equipment we used and gave away in the free raffle.

We live in a great community of people who willingly volunteer their time in support of others.
