Club Day / Karla Celebration this Saturday! Update!

Hi everyone,

Hope you’re all enjoying the sunny weather we’ve had this week ??

We’ve got nearly 80 people who’ve said they’re coming to this Saturday’s Club Day / Karla Celebration! This is great, thank you for signing up – if you have told me informally you’re coming, it would still be really good if you can signup on the Eventbrite link so it’s all in one spreadsheet (spreadsheets make me very happy). Here’s the link again:

Just to update you on a few extra bits in the schedule for the day:

  • Oleg will be running the Table Tennis Tournament at 2.30-3.30 (tables will be out so you can play during the day as well – you’ll need to practise if you want to beat Oleg…)
  • If you can’t sign up to Family Cup for any reason on MyCourts, please let me or Peter know and we can sign you up for it.
  • Raffle will be drawn at 9pm – if you can’t stay that long don’t worry you can still buy a ticket whilst there and we will keep a note of your name/number in case you win. We’ll sell tickets all day and evening up until 9pm. 1st prize is 3 coaching sessions with Peter!!
  • We will have yoga mats available for the Yoga for Tennis taster sessions , but feel free to bring your own mat if you’d like to try out Lisa’s yoga – they are really good sessions for stretching out and strengthening your achey tennis muscles.
  • If you’ve told me you can bring a cake or buffet food – thank you!! Cake stall will start at noon and we will need to know allergens etc for the ingredients. If it’s easier to bring cakes on Friday evening rather than Sat morning, I will be around at Social and we can put them in the fridge overnight.
  • If you’ve told me you can bring buffet food , that’s also amazing – so far we’re up to about 3 cous cous salads and many other exciting things. Again if there are any allergens, we need to know about these. If you could bring these on the night that will be easier, from 5.30pm onwards.

The bands will start around 7pm, here’s some info about them:

Sam Pappon (Karla’s son) – his band is called Lend Me the Twelve , I saw them at Off the Cuff in Herne Hill a few years ago and they were really great. Here’s some links:

Brasstermind , featuring one of our members – Misha Fox, are also excellent, here are some links to their music:

After the bands DJ Anna Doble will be on the decks til late !! If there are any favourite tunes you want her to play let me know and I’ll see if I can bribe her (depending if it’s something I like … eg Belinda Carlisle...)

We also wanted to let you know that we will be splitting all profits made on the day between NDLTC and also the fundraising for the development of the Karla Pappon Court at Charter School where Karla worked and is deeply missed. Karla ran the tennis club at the school and was deeply committed to the wider work of the school. They are redeveloping an area at the school to create a multi-use games pitch in memory of Karla. You can read more about that on their Justgiving page here:

And finally – let’s hope that we have an Emma Raducanu US Open final on Saturday to add to all the excitement….

Thanks

Lucy
