I am so honored to manage the Frenchman ’ s Creek Ladies Tennis Team that demonstrates such enthusiastic dedication. This is our second year of having a team in more than 25 years. With the help of Paulo, as our coach, the team of Karen Allen, Jeanne Barbieri, Nancy Citrin, Lynne Cooper, Debbie Fradkin, Adrienne Glasnov, Suzie Goodwin Lerman, Debra Greenberg, Kerry Iris, Tracy Krantz, Wendy Schrieber, and Sari Zubatkin all have contributed to our success. We are currently 4 2, and hoping to extend our cur rent winning streak.

Please stay tuned, and we thank you so much for your support!

MY MORNINGS WITH THE LADIES (AND JERRY) I am a product of NYC, born and raised; which means I ’ m tough. I ’ m 68 now and if anyone had told me years ago that I would spend 2 - 3 days a week doing morning water aerobics with the ladies, I ’ d ask them what they were smoking. But about 2 years ago my lovely wife comes to me and says “ I think we should try water aerobics; it ’ s an activity we can do together. ” Of course under my breath I ’ m saying no way, no how; but like any good, smart husband I say “ sure dear; anything you want ”. So off we go to water aerobics. Chris our full of life instruc tor leads the pack of the loveliest and nicest ladies any one at FC can find. They take me in and treat me as one of their own as I ’ m the only guy except wonderful Jerry who picks out the greatest Rock and Roll music to aerobic to. Who would ever have thought that I would look forward to seeing everyone and doing water aerobics at 8am or so. The ladies tolerate my cra ziness and we all aerobic along. Lest you think that real men don ’ t eat quiche or do water aer obics, I defy any guy to do it and not feel it afterwards. As my father used to say, I feel no pain when you go the dentist. (No offense to dentists!) Come on guys give it a try. You might be surprised at how much you might like it. Bobby Vilensky
