Camps will run from Monday, July 1, through Wednesday, July 24, and will be held at the Horne Family Racquet Center at Oglebay Park.
These camps are designed to provide a fun and memorable tennis experience by fostering personal growth and nurturing a lifelong passion for tennis, no matter what the participant's age.
The camp schedule will divide players into age groups, ensuring each player receives the appropriate attention and guidance.
Children ages 4-18, beginner through advanced, are invited to participate. The adult camp welcomes those who are beginners or with limited experience.
