New Location & Events Announced for 5th Annual Love All Tennis Fundraiser
The popular fundraiser moves to TOPS'L Beach and Racquet Resort in 2016
ResortQuest by Wyndham Vacation Rentals is proud to host the 5th Annual Love All Tennis event to benefit Food for Thought Outreach at TOPS'L Beach and Racquet Resort on Friday, February 19th, 2016. Expanding from a small round robin tournament to a growing signature event, the 2016 event will feature a doubles team challenge for adults of all levels and ages, as well as a pre-match breakfast, raffle and silent auction.
Love All Tennis started as a grassroots fundraiser five years ago by a few local moms with a passion for supporting Food for Thought Outreach, then a charity in its infancy. Five years later it is has grown into something very special, warranting a larger venue and additional day-of events.
Additional local businesses like Beachy Beach 30A Real Estate, Chi-Mar Construction, Porath and Associates, P.A, and Miramar Beach Dental and Orthodontics, are working together to ensure the event will be better than ever. The location change will help the event grow and take on more players. TOPS'L Beach and Racquet Resort will also be providing a pre-tournament breakfast for players and Pop Stop will provide their signature mimosa pops as an extra treat.
Tennis professionals like Christoffer Fasth, tennis pro at Watercolor® and Seaside®, in collaboration with director of tennis at TOPS'L, Joe D'Aleo will be leading the clinics and are thrilled to be a part of this special event on its fifth anniversary.
D'Aleo adds, "Christoffer and I are very honored to help with this event and grateful to ResortQuest for allowing us the opportunity to engage local tennis pros and clubs to work together for the mission of Food for Thought, an organization that helps so many kids in our local area."
Male and female tennis players of all levels are invited to play in the event, regardless of skill level or experience. January 4th, 2016 early bird registration begins online at the new Food for Thought website, www.fftfl.org. Tickets may be purchased in advance for $30 per person. Tickets will be $40 per person the day of the event.
Attendees are encouraged to register early for the event to secure their spot and a free event t-shirt, courtesy of Print Source, as supplies are limited.
Vice President of Food for Thought Outreach, Hilary Farnum has been blown away by the increased support by the local business community. "Beachy Beach 30A made a commitment to be a corporate sponsor for Food for Thought Outreach three years ago, but we knew we couldn't really make an impact we wanted without the help of other people in our industry. We are thankful for other local businesses like ResortQuest for coming to the plate this year and really helping us make an impact."
All proceeds of this event will go directly to benefit Food for Thought Outreach, Inc.
