Registration for the Lafayette Tennis Indoor Sessions at the Chevy Chase Community Center has lots of spots in 2019
|
This winter we will not have any indoor tennis activities through Flex at Lafayette ES due to lack of space in the school. We have indoor programs at the Chevy Chase Community Center (CCCC) that will be starting right after the New Year Break (Late Winter) on January 7, 2019 that will go until March 15. This is a great chance to keep the kids burning energy and to keep their tennis skills improving or to introduce tennis at a fun, low key level to beginners. The smaller courts, mini-nets and foam balls make indoor tennis fun. These programs are open to Lafayette ES students (5-12) and other boys and girls in the local neighborhood community, Monday through Friday at 3:30 and 4:45. We will be offering optional transportation to CCCC from Lafayette for any students at the school including those in CLS.
|
This is a smaller program that only has 8 spots per class, so I suggest registering soon. I would recommend signing up for the Late Winter sessions now. You can use https://lafayettetennisdmv.jumbula.com to register or go to www.LafayetteTennis.org to get to the same registration site. Do not try to register from a smartphone. Use a browser on a computer or Macintosh.
|
If you have any questions or issues around scheduling, please contact me as soon as you can. Thank you, Paul Rosenbaum, Lafayette Tennis 202 441-0925
