Secret Squirrel – Paul’s Surprise Party

Dear Members

Can you believe that our very own Head Coach Paul Butcher has been at the club for 40 years this year?

We are planning a little party to celebrate his time here at the club and to thank him for his years of endless enthusiasm, expert tennis knowledge and boundless energy, all in the pursuit of helping us all play more and better tennis.

We are hoping we can pull this off as a surprise!

Sunday April 13th 17:00 – 19:00

Buffet style cream tea will be provided

If you can make it please book in via the link below so that we know how many people we are expecting:

https://clubspark.lta.org.uk/SouthDevonTennisCentre/Coaching/Book/e9f54a18-5ef0-463e-bdf5-ca32c381a728

Can you help us make it a party to remember:

• Please pass this link to people who may not be members any longer, but you know would like to come and celebrate Paul’s coaching career here
• Any suggestions or gift ideas welcome
• Any offers of photos or memories you would like to contribute please do send them to lesley.crocker@sdtennis.co.uk
• We also thought it would be nice to create a short video for Paul, please send any clips or words of thanks to Lesley 07966773398 via Whatsapp.
  • No-longer than 30 secondsPlease film in landscape

The club are going to pay for the buffet and the party, but if anyone would like to contribute towards a gift for Paul, please quietly let the staff on reception know – they will also have a card that you can sign.

Many thanks

Lesley Crocker
General Manger
