WKCTA 6TH ANNUAL RALLY FOR LIFE EVENT!

1PM Friday July 26th - 1PM Saturday July 27th

One of the unique aspects of our tennis organization that we are very proud of, we have always tried to give back to the community and its citizens. Six years ago our Board decided we needed a cause that touched many of us and others in the area. In our first 5 years, we’ve raised nearly $15,000 for the American Cancer Society and have collected many school supplies for the Sharing Center. Below are the goals of the Rally and the Agenda of the activities during the Rally.

The Goals of the Rally:
- Raise money for the American Cancer Society
- Gather “Back-to-School items and Gym Shoes for the Sharing Center
- Keep a tennis ball going over the net for 24 hours in a row

Friday, July 26, 2019
1:00pm – 2:00pm Opening Ceremony: Open to everyone and we’d like to see some Cancer Survivors out on the courts to start the rally.
