Bears' Den Tennis Class - Top Performers

Mon, 01/23/2017 - 2:48pm — John Embry

The week of January 16th saw the conclusion of the second nine weeks of Bears' Den. Among the many classes at Bears' Den was tennis class, held on Wednesdays during the second session. Although the class has been offered to the youthful participants of Bears' Den for several years now, instructor Clint Dockery took the course in a different direction this session - opting to put on a points race for the participants. The premise for the points' race was simple. Students could obtain points weekly through their performance for each particular week. Although the class lasted nine weeks, only each student's "best seven" weeks were counted in deciding the final standings. Trophies were made available thanks to donations of several individuals, and were awarded to the top performers. When the dust settled after the final class on January 18th, the top performers were as follows:

Overall Champion & Boys Champion: Quenton B.
Girls Champion & Overall 2nd Place: Emily C.
Girls Runner-Up & Most Improved: Chloe M.

Boys Runner-Up: Nicholas F.

Perfect Attendance: Adrian G.

With the conclusion of the session, a new nine-week session of Bears' Den will be kicking off. This session will also include tennis, among other classes.

Note: Bears Den is a Community Education program with after-school homework help and enrichment classes, held on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 3:30-5:30 p.m. For more information, please see the entry form.
