Free Pallets

06/19/2023 by Geordie Hall Leave a Comment

We have the pallets left over from the delivery of the court material. Any members want them?

If you want to just a few that’s fine but please don’t take Jill good ones and leave the broken ones. Most of them are in excellent shape.

First come, first served I. E. First in🤪

MRTC Opening Today

05/26/2023 by Bob Vietze Leave a Comment

The courts were finished last evening by Dee & Scott Barker. A shout-out to their hard work over the past ten days. We did add additional material to the surface this year which should make a big difference in the quality of play. It is early in the day and the courts are soft so a word of caution especially if there is moisture in the surface. Remember to always sweep after play.

Please take time to go to our website and read the 2023 season overview that Darlene put together. There are additional offerings for play this year.

Enjoy!

Men’s Doubles

05/25/2023 by Geordie Hall Leave a Comment

Men’s doubles will be played once a week on Tuesdays from 4 to 6 PM. This is open to all levels.

Assuming the courts are open, the first session is scheduled for Tuesday, May 30.

We will again use playerlineup.com for signing up. If you were enrolled in playerlineup last year, you need to do nothing and should’ve received an email already.

If you have not enrolled in playerlineup, you can do so by using the following link:

https://mrtcmensdoubles.playerlineup.com/public_join

If you are going to play on a date, please indicate “IN” on the site. If you change your mind and cannot play, please go in and change your status to “OUT” even if it is at the last moment.

We look forward to playing with you and don’t forget to bring the beverage of your choice for after play.

Let me know if you have any questions

IRGENT – Help needed at 8:30 AM for the Saturday workday

05/12/2023 by Geordie Hall Leave a Comment

We have had difficulty finding someone to move the pallets of materials up to the courts. I have a friend who has a large backhoe who lives across the street. He is willing to help us tomorrow, but would like to start at 8:30.

We need 4 to 6 people and 4-6 crowbar/pry bars.

Please text me at 802–793–5316 immediately if you are able to help and let me know if you can bring any crowbar/pry bars

Annual Spring Workday, New Notification System

05/09/2023 by Webmaster Leave a Comment

Hi All, not meaning for you to be informed too many times about our upcoming Spring workday. I have installed a new notification system in our website and sent the old post again by accident. So, the goal of this post is two-fold:

First, to inform you of more detail about the annual Spring workday scheduled for Saturday May 13 at 9:00 at the courts. Work includes bringing the furniture out, repairing fences, getting the watering system operating, a bit of gardening clean-up, etc. It should take about 2 hours. Rain date is the 14th. All members are welcome. Please let Geordie know if you can make it. His email is [email protected].

Second, IMPORTANT, to ask you to reply to this email. Website notifications, like a newsletter, are notorious for being spam filtered. This will be our main way of contacting you once I know everyone is receiving it. PLEASE simply reply to this email to let Darlene know you received the notification, no words needed.

CLOSING DATE SUNDAY THE 6TH

11/03/2022 by Bob Vietze Leave a Comment

A heads up the courts will be open through Saturday the 5th for play. We’ve had a great run of weather that has extended the season. Even though we opened a bit late this season the ability to go into November was certainly a bonus.

Hope everyone enjoyed the season, and we’ll see you next year!

End of Season Maintenance Help Needed

10/02/2022 by Geordie Hall Leave a Comment

We need to start some of the end of season maintenance stuff which includes: storing and winterizing the pump, moving in most of the furniture, cutting back the daylilies and gardens, and putting the plugs in the court sprinklers. 3 to 4 people should be able to accomplish this.

If you can help please email me directly at [email protected]. We will do this Saturday, October 8 at 2 PM. This is something that can be done even if there is light rain or snow showers.

Anticipated Club Closing Date

09/27/2022 by Bob Vietze Leave a Comment

Hope everyone has had a great summer and have gotten the opportunity to enjoy the courts!

As we enter the first few days of Fall, I would like to update everyone on the projected closing date of the club. We will keep the club open as long as possible in October as weather permits. On a side note, the portable will be in place until we close in late October.

Let’s hope we get an extended period of Indian Summer before the snow flies!
