Ambassador
The Ambassador Committee is dedicated to welcoming new members and helping them feel at home in our club. Ambassadors, when needed, pair up with newcomers to guide them through club play and other activities, introduce them to other members and generally help them integrate into club life. In addition, ambassadors represent the Stone Creek tennis club at community events such as sports expos and fall expos. Additional committee members are Cheryl Shebesta, Susan Schmidt, Bill Freeman, Kaye Abight
Social
The Social Committee works closely with the Board to plan and coordinate a variety of social events for our tennis club. Committee members take the lead in organizing details such as potlucks, cookouts, and catered gatherings. They also handle logistics like ice, supplies and festive decorations for holiday socials. In addition, the committee collaborates with the Inter-Community Play Committee whenever our club hosts matches, helping to ensure events run smoothly and are enjoyable for everyone.
Court Maintenance
The Court Maintenance Committee helps keep our tennis facilities in top condition and promptly reports any maintenance concerns to the Board. Responsibilities include periodic inspections of court surfaces, windscreens, and nets; removing wind-blown debris like pine needles; and emptying court trash cans. Committee members also roll up windscreens and remove bench canopies in late July or early August as the risk of high-wind storms increases. Additional committee members are Jeff Oparka, David Horetsky, Bonnie Keating, Julie Baldwin.
Intercommunity Play / Tournaments
The Inter-Community Play Committee organizes and coordinates matches with tennis clubs in neighboring Ocala communities, both home and away. Responsibilities include contacting other clubs, arranging match schedules, handling logistics, and fostering friendly competition that helps our members enjoy new challenges and build connections. Additional committee members are Kelly Thompson and Bill Freeman.
