Hedgerow Tennis Community- We look forward to many new Championships with our New Courts with no Cracks!!!!
January 18, 2012 — contacthhoaI wanted to make an exciting announcement to all of Hedgerow and our Tennis Community from your Tennis Chair-
While we continue to struggle over the past few years with our cracked courts and almost a non-playable surface for this 2012 season we are going to make a capital investment into our courts. While the overall Renovation project did not pass (believe it or not it was close) there is a fairly large reserve we have been able to build up over the past couple of years. Just like we vested into HR III pool last year we will make an investment into our Tennis Courts for 2012- Per our due dilligence we had 2 companies view our courts and both stated patching our courts would not last more than a day due to the size and conditions (25 years plus) of the courts so we are going to start on February 6, 2012 and complete a full Re-do of our courts and do them the right way! Based on the weather during the next few months we have blocked the courts out from February 6- April 30- We are hoping to finish mid April if not sooner- If weather stays the way it is we will be in great shape-
I hope you are as excited as I am about this investment as it is the first start to feeling very proud about how our amenities will look over the next few years with everyone’s buy in. This is all being paid for out of our reserve which and will still leave us in great shape at the end of 2012! We are also looking for volunteers per Kayte’s email regarding committees we will create to start working on phase II, III amenity upgrades by using our existing plan and working new angles to continue to upgrade our facilities and improve the value of our neighborhood and homes!
We have been working with Southeastern Tennis for the best deal, construction cost, add-on’s etc… for the project. We feel we have taken them down to the penny on the project that will have a solid new base that will have good guarantees going forward.
Some of the scope of the work to be accomplished:
- The court will be grinded and layed back as additional base of 6-8 inches- (most are saying there was zero rock bed under our courts based on the time frame they were installed) Money saver and large buffer for the base
- Existing Lights will be replaced with 9 poles with upgraded lights/long lasting and money savers- Huge upgrade and no more night blinding serves!
- New 9 gauge black vinyl coated fencing
- Regrading court to Shallowford road to eliminate current poor drainage-
- Scoreboards
- Nets
- Poles
- New Sidewalk by pavilion that holds water
- Windscreens
- Much much more from testing the courts
I hope you are as fired up as I am…….Next steps- Please see the and I want link below and give me your vote on Court Colors- just click on the site and let me know your thoughts- I appreciate all the feedback I have gotten thus far during this process- We look forward to getting more people into the Tennis Leagues and be a force going forward- Go Hedgerow!

Another fun deal is I negotiated a ball machine for the complex that we will lock and key at the pool house with some rule to check out and use- Give me your feedback on this- Perfect for our practices!
