Was such a lovely day to leave internship early yesterday (how can you not like the 80s? o, i love it! summer is JUST around the corner.. yippppppppppppeeeee!) to come on by to one of the 3 tennis facilities BH has to offer. If you didn't know, now you know.
The city of BH Recreation and Parks Dept consists of 3 tennis courts which you can use: La Cienega Tennis Center, Roxbury Park (woOHOOo! A childhood favorite where I took after school activities and much much more, and even better, a place where I witnessed Ludacris with his daughter) & the BHHS.
The rates are $6 on wkdays and $7 on the wkends. I'm not sure how much it is for non residents because I still have my BH address on my license from way back then. A tennis ball machine is available and is $8 plus court fee. One may walk in on a first come first serve basis, or if you must be a planner like me, you should purchase their Leisure Card which allows a BH resident to reserve a court a week in an advance. (sorry, I'm not helping those who aren't BH residents) This is valid for one year. I used to go more often but now, I go once a year or less now. Pilates seemed to have taken over.
Let's talk about each of the courts...
