Anyone for Tennis?

When you think of tennis, you might immediately think of NY.  After all, the US Open is played right there at the Billie Jean King Tennis Center in Queens. That relationship spawned numerous pro-training centers as well. John McEnroe had his own private facility just down the street from his family's estate in Oyster Bay Cove on Long Island.

I would have never thought a jaded New Yorker like myself could be blown away by some tennis facility in North Carolina.......

I was wrong...



Right here in Cary we have one of the finest year-round outdoor Tennis Parks in the country
boasting 29 Championship courts including a stadium tournament court,



as well as practice walls and 4 junior sized quick start courts for kids.


The facility, which is situated on a gorgeous park like setting surrounded by picturesque walkways and bridges, has been selected as one of only 2
Development Training Centers by the U S Tennis Association.



The town of Cary consistently exceeds at developing recreational "Quality of Life" areas, which is clearly yet another reason why so many people are drawn to the area.  People who desire an active lifestyle feel right at home on the walking trails, the designated bike roads, and at the Tennis Park where, even now in mid-November, the courts are......in full swing!
