‘Cruzin’ tennis event was a smash

Head tennis pro Allan Overland, the staff at Boeing Employee Tennis Club and Kent 4 Health hosted a free event June 24 for Kent 4 Health’s ‘Cruzin’ Passport’ participants. Kids were given tennis tips from instructors and played fun drills to build beginning tennis skills. Some parents got into the action too!
