After much work at the Halton Hills Tennis Club (HHTC) to renovate its clubhouse at the Gellert Recreation Centre, members were ready to show the results to Mayor Rick Bonnette, lo- cal councillors and Sheila Tutty from the Ontario Trillium Foundation. The club received a $60,500 grant in 2012 to do extensive renovations to improve the clubhouse, making it fully wheelchair accessible, as well as to help buy new equipment to run its program more efficiently. John Dallison, president of HHTC, conveyed an overall feeling of pride that the club and its membership felt for their new facility that will become the hub for a wide range of tennis pro- grams and activities that are available to tennis players of all ages in the com- munity. The renovations and new deck area will enable the club to host more events and ensure that the building is more energy efficient. "The support provided by the Ontar- io Trillium Foundation has greatly en- hanced our tennis club's capability to grow the sport of tennis throughout the community and contribute to a healthy, active life style for all participants well into the future," Dallison added. HHTC, formerly known as Gor- don Alcott Tennis Club, has been in operation for 35 years in George- town and was recently relocated to the Gellert Centre in March, 2012. A leading grant-maker in Cana- da, the Ontario Trillium Founda- tion strengthens the capacity of the voluntary sector through invest- ments in community-based initia- tives. The Halton Hills Tennis Club recently received a $60,500 grant from the Trillium Foundation for renovations to the organization's clubhouse.
