Wimbledon King and Queen crowned

Strawberries & cream, good food and great tennis…  On June 28^th, 48 players enjoyed some good challenges, lots of laughs and great food.  Unfortunately, the rain cut the tennis part short, but not the socializing in the Clubhouse.  However, enough tennis was played to determine this year’s King and Queen of Wimbledon: Dean Trudeau and Andrea Haddix.    Congratulations.  Thanks to the BWB Tennis Association for putting this fun filled event on; and to Brian Ritchie who did an outstanding job with the round robin format.   More pictures are available at the Event Details page.
