The courts returned to normal play on Day 5.................fewer players than on most days. Must have been a day of rest. Rest that is until 11AM when the potluck celebration began. A huge group of our fellow friends decided it was a good move to mix a little, eat a little, and sip a little. Really a super 2 hour feast.
