"What has been the differâ€" ence?" she asked in her prefâ€" ace. "Perhaps the fact that the Club has had a home, a serene and beautiful resting place at the site of the Waterâ€" loo Park, a place where peoâ€" ple enjoyed coming to, returning to, a place where they felt comfortable to pick up their racquets, to practice their game, no matter the days or years that they had been away." The club has a long and successful relationship with the City of Waterloo which Nearly 30 years ago Hearn mused as to what helped the Waterloo club survive when some other facilities in the area opened and closed. Add to that, the turbulent and unpredictable 1980s and 1990s and now five years into the new millennium and you can understand the pride the WTC members have in the survival of this modest clubâ€" house and 12â€"court facility. the Depression, The Second World War, the postwar boom, the affluent Sixties," Hearn wrote in her preface.

And one final thought about golf and tennis and the decision I made years ago. I never took into consideraâ€" tion the fact that tennis can be played indoors all winter as is done at the WTC‘s "bubâ€" ble."
