Tennis courts project gets $7,000 grant

The Alexandria athletic department recently received a $7,000 check that represents the first grant for the new tennis courts project at the new high school.

Christine Nickels, the United State Tennis Association’s (USTA) Northern Director of Community tennis, was on hand at the Discovery Middle School courts recently to award the check to Alexandria tennis coaches Dave Ronning, Steve Haug, John Schmidt and Lakes Area Recreation Director Fritz Bukowski.

The school has also submitted a grant request to the National USTA and is hoping to hear back on that request soon.
