Last Saturday, October 14, 8 tweens bravely decided that a tennis outing party was how they were going to spend their Saturday evening.

Arriving at BTC, they were not sure what to expect; instruction, regimentation, a drill seargent barking orders? Upon entering the courts, they were surprised to hear music blaring, pizza waiting on the counter, instructions of “have fun” and a teenager musician, Adam Rosenwach in charge.

Once they adjusted to the fun on the tennis court concept, a great time was had by all, ending with a supervised game of manhunt. We hope to have another tween party soon!
