Party, a trip to Casino Rama, a dinner in a restaurant downtown and
a potluck lunch and two all-embracing parties that include a roast
pig, Chinese food and several vegetarian dishes in addition to
pizzas Opening Day and two Friday Round Robins.

has two teams in the Scarborough Tennis Federation's Interclub League.
We have a competitive Adult House League that has teams with members
at all ability levels. We attempt to arrange matches so that members
face opponents of the same ability. Also there are singles and doubles
tennis ladders running throughout the summer that determine the Club
Champions.
