NEW JUNIOR USTA PROGRAM! TENNIS FOR KIDS!!!
Mike Kolendo, President of Western, MA USTA and Secretary of the New England USTA board, is one of the Pros leading this program. He is a terrific Coach, and kids love him. He is by far one of the most experienced pros in the area, winning the Regional Pro of the year award for the USTA. He has revitalized the indoor courts just across the town line in Sunderland, at the Maple Ridge Community Center and received a grant to start a new USTA Juniors program at these tennis courts.
There are also Adult programs. Please look at the attached schedule and contact Mike if you have any questions.

International experience for you and your family
Dear Friend of Education,
I hope that this message finds you well. I am writing to you because of your influential affiliation with the Crocker Farm Elementary School Parent Guardian Organization. It is my sincerest hope that you will share the following paid humanitarian opportunity with your network.
November 10th – 13th 49 Japanese students from Hiroshima’s Kyoro High School will be visiting Amherst. People Link a non-profit organization that aims to foster global community and understanding through the cultural exchange of young academics, is currently recruiting paid hosts for these students.
It is my strong belief that the families of Crocker Farm Elementary School are ideal homestay candidates. The parents and guardians of Crocker Farm have the powerful ability to teach their children about open-mindedness and kind-hearted, humanitarian purpose by opening their home to a Japanese student. Additionally, the homestay experience is incredibly rewarding and paid. This is your organization’s opportunity to participate in a truly selfless act of good.
Are you interested in hosting a student? Do you know anyone who would be interested in being a host? Can you inform the Crocker Farm Elementary School Parent Guardian Organization of this unique, paid opportunity? Please do not hesitate to contact me or to share my information with any potential homestay participants. Your help is essential. You have the profound chance to greatly affect the lives of these visiting Japanese students. Thank you for your attention. I look forward to hearing from you.
All the best,
Margaret Johnson
