Mateo’s 30 Year Service Award Party

On Thursday, April 18th, a small ceremony was held at the Tennis Club to present Mateo Cuevas with an award for his 30 years of service to the club. There were many in attendance to celebrate the occasion.

The award certificate said, in part:

“Mateo, you have single-handedly done the work of two or three workers while maintaining an incomparable level of commitment and dedication” – which pretty well sums up the feeling members have for Mateo.

We really are so blessed to have such a good man as Mateo working at our club, and it sure was nice to be able to show our appreciation after all these years. Quite literally, he is the glue that keeps this club in one piece.
