C'mon out Tuesday after work all summer long for some fun and good exercise. 

Wet courts or rain cancels this meetup, and I would send out an email to all if that happens. 

Not sure if it's us?  Just ask, "Meetup group?," and someone can warm up with you for a little bit, then join the open doubles play.  This is very informal.  Bring a new can of balls.

Please RSVP (see below) so we have a sense for how many are coming.  Thanks, and look forward to meeting you all soon!

Please register and join our group at this site so we can contact you in the event of a cancellation due to weather:  http://www.meetup.com/Easton-pickup-tennis-group/
