The APC is being extremely generous to provide the hospitality of NOT ONLY their tennis facility, but they are also offering to provide a BBQ Picnic for us. They are offering the invitation for FREE. All they are asking for is who would like to attend, so they know how much food they need to purchase. Which certainly sounds extraordinarily reasonable and the least we can do.

The generous hospitality of this FREE invitation from the Arlington APC Board has been offered to our Hoboken Group to help further strengthen Hudson County Tennis and help all our county tennis clubs work better together. It's unbelievable that they are offering extraordinary invitation for FREE to our Hoboken group. Frankly this invitation is just too generous and shouldn't go unrecognized by any of us.

So It's FREE, BUT We all know for so many reasons that it's just NOT RIGHT be an invited guest and go to a party empty handed.

Since Mama told us, - If you're an invited party guest to someone's house - NEVER GO EMPTY HANDED. We "strongly encourage" all RSVPed invited guests to bring a votive contribution to the party and meal. Bottles of Wine, Cases of Beer, Vodka, Martini's, Diet Snapples, Sodas, Cakes, Fresh Fruit, Nuts, Desserts, Etc. Etc. What's best is Whatever you think would make a great contribution to the event.

Playing at Arlington will be fun - This will be the best social tennis we've played yet.

How late will the party go? Who Knows? When it gets Dark the party will move into the clubhouse.

Best Of All - You get to play tennis on Clay Courts, which is a treat.

The Arlington APC has Seven Clay Courts, a Clubhouse and some of the best Tennis competition in the area. It's Hudson County's Only Private Tennis Club. They are hosting this event as a very positive Hudson tennis community service. Since they are currently in membership drive mode and are looking to try to meet a few new tennis members for this year, this is a great way to get to know the APC in order to see if the it's right for you or other area tennis players you might know.

DRESS CODE - Most Private Clubs have these rules -

Men collared & sleeved tee shirts
Ladies - You know best, Almost anything goes
ALL Warm ups or sweat suits OK
Sneakers - Flat Sneakers preferred so it does dig up the clay court surface.
There is NO "All White" Rule
There is NO - "No Denim" Rules

LOCKER ROOMS - Yes there are both ladies and mens locker rooms with showers

Still Can't Believe, IT'S FREE! - This is very generous of Arlington Board of Directors and it will be a pleasure to get to know their club better. I'm sure one or two of you might be interested in their club, if not this year maybe next.

The Arlington Players Club has some very high quality tennis competition. They have many leagues and teams in order to play against other NJ & NY tennis clubs. If you're into full time and all the time tennis competition, this could be the place for you.

They are looking for new members for this year, so here's their club info and membership materials. If this is just NOT right for you, perhaps you would consider a referral to other friends who might be more inclined to join this type organization.
