On a recent four-seasons-in-one Sunday morning, Blackheath Tennis Club marked the opening of its refurbished Club House. Renovations of the century old building saw removal of asbestos, installation of a new ceiling, new flooring and a new kitchen. President Craig Tuffley thanked the State Government for funding the project and the Blue Mountains City Council for carrying out the work. Local MP Trish Doyle and Ward 1 Councillor Suzie Van Opdorp both congratulated the Club and paid tribute to its role as a social hub supporting health and well-being in the Blackheath community.
The Club also recognised the contribution of two much loved and respected past Presidents – long term member Bill Hume, who was made a life member, and the late Eddie McCoy after whom the refurbished kitchen was named.
