How high could gas go?

Everyone is speculating about gas prices. How high (or low) do you think they'll be by the end of the year? Will they fall because people are driving less to conserve or will they climb due to the falling dollar and other factors?

Tennis block party

Filed under:


No votes yet

May is National Tennis Month and to encourage people of all ages to pick up a racquet, the U.S. Tennis Association (USTA) is serving up a community initiative across America.  From coast to coast, community tennis organizations will host “Tennis Block Parties” to encourage people of all ages and abilities to take to the court.

In Shakopee, the Tennis Block Party is being hosted by Shakopee Tennis Association at Stans Park at the Shakopee Junior High School on Sunday, May 18 from 1 to 4 p.m.  The event is free and open to the public. For more information, visit www.ShakopeeTennis.org or David Forbes call (612) 940-8246.

Tennis Block Parties offers attendees a day of free tennis, interactive games and attractions, and the opportunity to learn and enjoy the benefits of the game – from fun and competition, to lifestyle and fitness.

The event will also debut the USTA’s innovative new play format called QuickStart Tennis which was created to help children, ages 10 and under, find success learning tennis from the very first swing.  The new format scales down all aspects of regulation tennis—including equipment, court dimensions, and scoring—so that the game becomes specifically tailored to their age and size.
