It is your graciousness and understanding that gets us excited for this new year, and 2022 is one to celebrate. It marks 20 YEARS since the Fred Wells Tennis and Education Center opened its doors. Since 2002, a community of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds has come together to enjoy the lifelong game of tennis! Whether you have been with us for all 20 years or just more recently, we are immensely thankful for your participation in helping us create a welcoming environment for all to experience the physical, mental, and social benefits of this great sport.

20th Anniversary Events

 
 

20 years ago on June 8, 2002, we began living out the vision of our founder, Fred Wells. We celebrated with you two decades later at our Birthday Bash on June 8 with cake, refreshments, and tennis! Thank you to all who came out to celebrate, and be sure to view the slideshow above to look through the last 20 years of our organization!

We kicked off this special year with the return of our fan favorite event, the ProAm! Our community spent a fun Saturday supporting our amazing teams on court and the mission of this organization. Because of them, we surpassed our goal and raised over $68,000! Visit the event page for a recap of the evening.

As we strive to achieve the ambitious goals outlined in our 3-year strategic plan, these events and fundraising initiatives will enable us to remove barriers to participation, expand our free TennisWorks programs, and continue improving our facilities operations and infrastructure.

Here’s to many more decades of living out Fred Wells’ vision and continuing to expand opportunity and build community through the lifelong game of tennis.
