TENNIS NEWS


CONSTRUCTION TRANSITION
Construction is underway at the Racquet Club! A temporary trailer is now set up and will house all tennis operations during the transition to our new facility. During the transition, we will have basic tennis necessities available: tennis balls, sodas, sunscreen, bug spray, as well as towels and coffee. Racquet stringing will be available without interruption. We do not anticipate court reservations, programs and normal play to be affected during the transition, with the exception of a little construction noise along the way. We appreciate your cooperation through the transition and remain committed to delivering the best possible tennis experience.

Our old phone numbers are now operational. Please note that we will not have email or Internet access for a period of time. We will communicate when it is back up and running as quickly as possible.

ALAN FLEMING TOURNAMENT
Seabrookers came out in a big way to make the Alan Fleming Tennis Tournament a great success. The Tournament raised over $36,000 for the Hospice of Charleston Foundation through the combined efforts of Seabrook Island Club members and staff. Seventy- eight Seabrookers donated directly to the Hospice and forty-one of the auction items were donated by island residents or Seabrook institutions.
In addition, nearly ninety Seabrookers volunteered in some capacity during the tournament. These volunteers did registration, parking, line sweeping, hospitality, and all facets of the very successful silent and live auction. In addition, 63 club members competed in the tournament.

GOLF NEWS




MGA & SILGA Member-Member Friday and Saturday November 13th & 14th
For the first time at the same time, our two major golf organizations at Seabrook join up to play their fall member-member tournaments. There will be a separate competition for both gentlemen and ladies but we'll play them at the same time on the same course. Then we'll come together for dinner Friday evening and again at the awards luncheon following play Saturday.

Both the MGA and SILGA will play four (4) different formats during the tournament including Four-Ball Stroke Play, Two-Ball Shamble, Captain's Choice Scramble and Modified Alternate shot. Prizes will be awarded for each nine hole competition as well as overall. The entry fee is $60 per player for gentlemen and $50 pp for ladies plus carts and includes dinner Friday, the awards luncheon on Saturday and prizes. Non-playing Spouses are invited and encouraged to attend both social functions and their meal(s) will be charged separately.

We're excited about combining these two traditional fall events into one great big event, so ladies and gentlemen, pick a partner join us. You may sign up by calling the golf shop at 768-2529 or email your entry to golf@discoverseabrook.com.

On Thursday's from 9:30- 10:30 the professional staff conducts a 1 hour clinic devoted to the full swing.

The cost is $15.00
