RENOVATION UPDATE February 4, 2008
Wheaton Indoor Tennis Facility scheduled to reopen September 2008
No Winter 2007/2008 or Spring 2008 courses
Renovations at the Wheaton Indoor Tennis facility have unfortunately been further delayed. The extremely high winds that whipped through the area in mid-December 2007 caught and shredded the fabric “skin” that was partially installed over the frame of the tennis structure.
This skin is a custom-made item, and it will take the manufacturer approximately 3 months to make another one for us. Work at the facility has been halted, and is scheduled to resume in the spring. After we receive the new skin, the contractor will need approximately 2-3 months to install it, followed by the HVAC and electrical work (which cannot be done until the skin is installed), color coating of the courts, and cleanup and final preparations for re-opening.
The new target date for the re-opening of the Wheaton Indoor Tennis facility is September, 2008. We apologize for the delays, and assure you that we are doing everything in our power to get this facility renovated and reopened.
Due to the renovations, no individual or group tennis courses will be held at Wheaton Tennis in the Summer 2008 season.
Remember, in addition to all these physical improvements to the Wheaton Indoor Tennis facility, we're also planning innovative new programs for teens, seniors, and tots, doubling the number of classes, and expanding our group lessons for all ages to seven days a week. We deeply regret the inconvenience these delays have caused you, and will continue to post progress reports and notify you with a firm opening date as soon as possible. It's been frustrating for us all, but we truly believe that the new and improved Wheaton Indoor Tennis Facility will be worth the wait.
Lottery for 2008/2009 Tennis Season at Wheaton Indoor Tennis
The lottery for the 2008/2009 tennis season at Wheaton Indoor Tennis has been postponed. We are waiting to finalize the contract for the renovations to the facility, which will in turn affect the re-opening date. We will post applications for the lottery on this website as soon as possible, and also will have them on hand to pick up at Pauline Betz Addie Tennis Center at Cabin John Regional Park.
Patrons with reserved seasonal court time for the 2007/2008 tennis season at Wheaton Indoor Tennis will be given the opportunity to lock in the same time slot they won in last year's lottery for the upcoming 2008/2009 season, without having to go through the lottery process. New applicants for seasonal tennis time at Wheaton Indoor Tennis will need to submit a lottery application.
