TENNIS NEWS FROM ORPS
As promised in the last ORACLE, here are a few pictures from our February mixer. We had a large group and many thanks to the 4.0/4.5 mixed team for hosting.
Our Tuesday night tennis has been super fun. We have been having some great turnouts. Join us for dinner afterwards at Bella Roma. Begins at 4PM. This month I wanted to highlight two people that epitomize grace in aging. They say that keeping active is the key to staying young. After looking at Dick & Charlotte Frink, I would say it is absolutely true. Both 90, they will be married 65 years in June. They started coming to the desert to be in bike races. Dick still loves to ride. They have been coming to ORPS for 12 years now and still enjoy it. They met at Iowa State College at the wedding of good friends. They have four children, 6 grandchildren and two great- grandchildren. Their hometown, when not in ORPS, is Carmichael, California. If you see them around and don’t know them be sure to introduce yourself to them as they are both gems. Charlotte is still very fierce out there on the courts so Dick has to tell her to just have fun!
We also celebrated a beautiful lady’s birthday. Happy 90 th to you Charlotte Frink!
Our wonderful cooks and hosts for this event.
Our next mixer will be held on March 22, look for details on the bulletin boards. The Horse Race is always the first Saturday of the month at La Palma. Bring $5 and be there by 8:30. It’s a fun time and you will be grouped with your level. The first Sunday of the month is our potluck, also at LaPalma. Bring a dish to share, your place setting, and drinks.
