MAY 10 . 2003 • Q-NOTES 19 Tennis anyone? The Charlotte area has many leagues for the tennis enthusiast to choose from, but the Queen City Tennis Club is different from the rest. They’re the only club where the GLBT commu nity can come together in a relaxed atmosphere, be themselves and enjoy the sport of tennis. QCTC is a membership organization of ten nis players that has been around for two years. The group started out very small, but has grown steadily to include about forty individu als. With this growth, the group has become more organized, recently forming a leadership team and adopting the following mission: “To transform the Queen City Tennis Club into one of Charlotte’s most enjoyable venues in which to socialize with gay, lesbian, bisexu al or transgender people, foster new friendships within this community, and experience various BERT WOODARD levels of competition within the sport of tennis. ” The club’s current play schedule includes "Open Play” every Sunday from 10 am to noon at Park Road Park. Players are matched according to skill level and then rotate every half-hour to play against others. This format is a great way for players to test their skills against a variety of strategies and to socialize witli different people. As the club grows and the demand for var ied playing opportunities increases, the club plans to add more programs. Therefore, in addition to Sundays, QCTC is planning to add Wednesday nights to its play opportunities this summer. The club is more than just about tennis though. Members often enjoy a good laugh at missed overheads, botched volleys or “hitting one outta the park!” So, play isn’t too serious. Members also come for the social aspect. A cookout social is sched uled for May 4 at Park Road Park to give everyone a chance to wind down and to socialize with other members after two hours of fun tennis. You are encouraged to come on out and play and help QCTC achieve its mission. So, whether an avid player, feisty competi tor or someone looking to dust off the old racket and start playing again. Queen City Tennis Club is a viable choice. If you are inter ested in playing some great tennis and meet ing even greater people, contact the Queen City Tennis Club and find out about all the membership benefits. info: cmaffmiller® carolina.rr.com 704-597-1 168 Shouldn't your next vacation be unforgettable? www.GayAdventureTravd.com Bike In France or choose from over 20 other exciting vacations T))et^«utic and De«)i Tissue Massage, induding Hot Stone Therapy Located in Cotswold's Colwick Towers Suite 603 • Charlotte, NC 704-364-2700 -W Sr ^ [' ] AND MORE!
