Friends of Perry Hines,
You are welcome to attend a ceremony in honor of our friend, Perry, as an Official’s Chair is dedicated to his memory at the Louisiana-Pacific Tennis Center on the University of Portland campus this Sunday, April 13th.
The ceremony begins at 10:30 am, with a small reception to follow while the Portland Pilots men take on the Santa Clara Broncos.
Please forward this article to any friends of Perry Hines that you feel may want to attend, all are welcome.
Our thanks to Aaron and Susie Gross and the men’s and women’s tennis teams of UP for their efforts in putting this event together.
I just read this statement on the USTA/PNW website today and thought I’d share it.
BEAVERTON, Ore. (September 18, 2013) – We were saddened to learn of the recent complaint filed by a certified official against USTA/PNW. The USTA/PNW has a longstanding reputation of promoting an inclusive culture in which individual differences are respected and valued as qualities that strengthen our tennis communities and contribute to promoting and developing the growth of tennis at every level in our Section. We are working with legal counsel to review the merits of this case.
