Summer Tennis Camp in Fox Chase If you are interested in a summer tennis camp, Legacy Youth Tennis and Education has a community tennis camp in Fox Chase (9 min away from Mckinley) from June 26-Aug 9th, Monday through Friday from 9am to 4pm. Children get to play tennis, improve their fitness, play tournaments against other community sites, free t-shirts and FREE LUNCH and snacks. All this for $290 for the entire summer and an additional sibling is $150. For $8 a day you get tennis, lunch and playtime! If interested , please see the link below. https://www.legacyyte.org/neighborhood-based-programs/
If your child is very serious about tennis and you don't mind driving them to Legacy's main campus in East Falls, there is a tennis camp there as well that is priced on a weekly basis. The camp runs from June 25th to Sept 1st and is $385 per week. You can sign up for 1 week, 10 weeks or anything in between. If interested, please see the link below. https://www.legacyyte.org/programs/center-based-tennis-camps-2/
Lastly, PLEASE LET Maritza Martinez KNOW IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN A WEEKEND PROGRAM OR AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM IN THE FALL AT LOCAL TENNIS COURTS. I hope to continue the spring tennis program at McKinley but if your child is interested in pursuing tennis further, Legacy would like to set something up locally year round.
