Hey Tennis Friends!
I attended the grand opening of a brand new tennis facility in my area, Andulka Park and Tennis Center.
The name comes from the Czech equivalent of “Little Anne”, which is the childhood nickname of the wife of the philanthropic family who donated this land to the city. The site was designated specifically for community park purposes.
Correction: It was not the owner, but the Director of Tennis, Larry Loeb, who was on center court. Also, apparently Mr. “Stickler for Pronunciation” kept mispronouncing the name of the park as “an-duh-LOOK-uh”, rather than the proper pronunciation of “an-DOOLK-uh”. Sheesh!
I’ll see you next time, with more tennis, . . . outside the lines!
