Grampy’s Charities to host tennis tourney
Grampy’s Charities will present the Beachview Tennis Club Open Doubles Tournament on March 8-9 at the Beachview Tennis Club, at 1101 Par View Drive, Sanibel.
Men’s and women’s doubles 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0 will be held on the first day, followed by mixed doubles 3.0, 3.5, and 4.0 on the second day. The entry fee is $100 per player per day or $150 for both days.
All players will receive T-shirts and lunch on both days.
The winners and runners-up will receive awards.
The proceeds will benefit the Lee Association for Remarkable Citizens (LARC), a nonprofit dedicated to providing support and opportunities for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD).
“I chose LARC to benefit from this tournament because I feel it is important to support local nonprofits, especially those like LARC,” club owner and tennis pro Toni Halski said. “They play a critical role in enhancing the quality of life for individuals with disabilities in Southwest Florida.”
The deadline to register is March 6.
“LARC has been making an impact in Southwest Florida for 70 years. We are committed to providing life skills and vocational training, residential services, and community inclusion programs aimed at helping individuals with IDD lead fulfilling lives,” Executive Director Angela Katz said. “By participating in the tournament or becoming sponsors, individuals and businesses can directly contribute to LARC’s mission of empowering individuals with IDD to achieve their full potential.”
