If anybody is interested in a double’s tennis tournament, please contact me. If there are

Tennis players of all ages and skill levels are encouraged to pick a partner and register
for the tournament. Tournament play will take place at the Fennville Community
Athletic Center.

The teams normally will consist of 10 person teams with five (5) males and (5) females
competing. Eligible players must be 18 years old and graduated from high school.
Games will be on Fridays and will start May 15. They will be one hour; beginning at 5:30-

City Park.
All registration forms must be completely filled out on a Fennville CAC registration form

Schedules will be sent via e-mail to the team captains and everyone else on the team for
which I have an email address.
All games will be played as scheduled unless circumstances dictate otherwise (i.e.,
weather). Games may have to be re-scheduled at other locations. Games will be played
with a 60-minute time limit or seven full innings (whichever occurs first).

A FREE CLASS GEARED TOWARD WOMEN WHO STRUGGLE WITH THEIR FITNESS AND
HEALTH
You don’t have to be a CAC member to take this class.
These are the requirements: A minimum of seven women who struggle with their fitness
and health and would like to make a change. Once we have a group compiled, chances
are it will be scaled back to one or two days, with “homework” workouts that can be
done on your own.

Dates Offered - Apr 13–for 30 days
Tentative Days (TBA) - M/T/Thur
Time - 10:00 - 11:00am
No Fee-Free
Fifteen minutes will be spent talking in a supportive and encouraging environment
about habits, and how to form good healthy habits, behavior modifications, and
lifestyle changes. Then there will be 45 minutes of low to moderate exercise; walking,
calisthenics, stretching, etc. with an introduction to different ways to exercise using
balls, bands, yoga, hoops.
Pre-registration is required one week before class is scheduled to start!
BIG YOGA
Have you ever wanted to try yoga, but didn't want to go to a regular class because of
your size, your age, a disability? Meera Patricia Kerr, who was featured on Channel 13
last month to talk about her new book entitled Big Yoga, has volunteered to come to
the CAC Tuesday, April 14 at 5:30 to teach a FREE class. Meera has over 25 years of yoga
teaching experience.
You don’t have to be thin, young, or flexible to enjoy the benefits of yoga. Bring a mat
if you want, otherwise, they will be provided. You don’t have to be a CAC member to
