On Friday, May 20, more than 50 tennis players and friends gathered at Piedmont’s Corey Reich Tennis Center for the 2022 Spring Fling Tennis Social. Lead sponsors Michelle Heafey and Sarah Meyjes from Grubb & Co. welcomed participants on the beautiful spring morning; expert trainers from StretchLab in Albany led the group in a warm-up; and then instructors Andrew Wendel, Sydney Williams, Ali Stein, and Michael Hieu organized drills and tennis games with fun prizes.
After the tennis, players walked to the beautiful backyard of Grace and Taylor Harris to enjoy brunch and a rousing game of tennis trivia.
