Eva Perón used her beauty and charisma to rise meteorically from the slums of Argentina to the presidential mansion as First Lady. Adored by her people as a champion for the poor, she became one of the most powerful women in the world - while her greed, outsized ambition and fragile health made her one of the most tragic. Evita tells Eva’s passionate and unforgettable true story, and features some of theater’s most beautiful songs, including ‘Don’t Cry for Me Argentina,’ ‘Another Suitcase in Another Hall’ and ‘High Flying, Adored.’ Held at Fair Park Music Hall.

This is a full-body cardio-jam session, combining lightly weighted drumsticks (RipStix) for resistance during constant simulated drumming.

It rivals the difficulty of an extreme boot camp, the effectiveness of intense Pilates and the benefits of cardiovascular interval training, but masks the challenge of all three with the feeling of rockin’ out. The workout fuses Pilates, isometric movements, plyometric, and yogabased poses into a 45-minute class. Burn calories, strengthen, and sculpt infrequently used muscles and drum your way to a leaner, more toned physique, all while rocking out to your favorite music with a group of peers, making music and driving the beat. Pound incorporates easy to follow moves that work the entire body and raises the heart rate to a fat-burning zone. Appropriate and effective for all fitness levels.

Programs are held in the Bluebonnet Room, located on the first floor of Medical Office Building 2 at Texas Health Plano.

Lessons, leagues and tournaments are offered on a regular basis for those wanting organized activities. For players not wanting a structured activity, many courts are open for reservations.

Registration Tennis registration may be completed by using Internet, in-person or by telephone starting Saturday, March 1. Please see “How to Register” information for detailed instructions.

Hours of Operation April 1 – Sept 30 Mon – Thu, 7:30am – 11pm Fri – Sun, 7:30am – 9pm October 1 – March 31 Mon – Thu, 9am – 11pm Fri – Sun, 9am – 9pm The tennis center may close early due to inclement weather and/or lack of court demand.

Court Fees

RESIDENTS

Youth (l7 & under) -- $2.50 per person per session Adult (l8 & up) -- $3.00 per person per session

NON-RESIDENTS

Youth (l7 & under) -- $3.25 per person per session Adult (l8 & up) ---- $4.00 per person per session

Annual Passes

Annual passes may be purchased which allow the holder to play without paying further per session court fees. Cost of the annual passes are:

Resident Family $260 Adult (l8 & up) $150 Youth (l7 & under) $85

72

Non-Resident $390 $230 $130

Reservations

Court reservations may be made in person or by telephone at (972) 941-7170, option 5 between 9 a.m. and closing, Monday through Sunday. A person may have only one reservation at a time (you must finish your first reservation before a second reservation can be made).

Instruction

Teen-Adult classes have a minimum of six students and a maximum of ten students per class. Youth classes have a maximum of eight students. Pee Wee classes have a maximum of 6 students. To avoid cancellation of a class, a class may “make” with less than six students, but with a reduced number of sessions. Classes at the same level and similar age groups may be combined at the discretion of High Point staff. Any group of two or more players may schedule a special class by contacting High Point staff at (972) 941-7170.

Group lessons are very popular and some classes fill very quickly.

To assure a continuous chain of instruction, it is recommended that students enroll for multiple sessions at the time of initial registration.

For example, a student should enroll for a Beginner session in the first session, an Advanced Beginner I group in the second session, and an Advanced Beginner II group in the third session.

10 & Under Tennis

High Point participates year round in the QuickStart Tennis play format, a national program designed to help children learn, rally, and play quickly. Using shorter and lighter racquets, balls that are easy to keep in play, and court dimensions tailored to smaller players, youngsters ages 5-10 pick up the game very quickly. Many young players are able to keep the ball in play and play points just like older and more experienced players. As students’ games improve and as they mature physically, they move to traditional rackets, balls, and courts. QuickStart is a great way to introduce children to the great game of tennis!

Advancement from Course to Course

Players are encouraged to continue learning and playing through progressively more challenging courses. The goal is to have students playing tennis (in some form) as soon as possible.

As a player improves, more course time is spent on point-play like situations. For children, the instructional/play sequence is: Beginner or Pee Wee I lessons (depending on age of child), Advanced Beginner or Pee Wee II lessons and Future Stars or Pre Junior Development (Play and Instructional Programs), Competitive and Elite Junior Development.

For Teens, the sequence is Beginner, Advanced Beginner I, Advanced Beginner II, Learn N Play, Future Stars, Competitive, and Elite Junior Development.

For Adults, the sequence is: Beginner, Advanced Beginner, Learn and Play, High Point intra-facility leagues, Tennis Competitor of Dallas leagues, and USTA Adult Leagues.

REGISTRATION 101 SO YOU WANT TO SIGN UP FOR A COURSE?

Great! We offer several convenient ways for you to register including: Internet, in person and by telephone.

INTERNET REGISTRATION “You’re first in line when you are on-line”

FASTEST Method

www.planoparks.org

Leisure Online

Actually, when registration begins each session, 750 people (or Internet connections) are allowed at one time.

We found that if we allow more connections the Web pages load too slowly for even the most patient person.

If you are not one of the first 750 connections you will get a message that reads “Leisure OnLine is currently busy due to high demand.” After the first 30 minutes of the start of registration the demand subsides allowing quick and easy access to the site.

Residents may register on-line beginning at 8 am on March 1. Be sure to get an Individual ID and Family PIN by calling any of our centers. Please call prior to the first day of registration because heavy call volume on this first day makes it difficult to get through on the phone. You can also request this information by e-mail 24/7 in the “My Account” section of Leisure OnLine if the e-mail address matches the one on your account or e-mail customer care. Have your Individual ID, Family PIN, course numbers and credit card information ready when you log on. Once logged on, you can shop, pay and print your receipts from your own computer. www.planoparks.org *Non-resident registration begins at 5 a.m. on March 3. Not all facilities open at 5 a.m., facility operational hours are listed on page 82.

Be sure to bring your course information and payment. You can only register for one family at a time. If you need to register for another family that cannot attend you must have a second person (age 16+) with you or go back to the end of the line then register for the other family. *Non-resident registration begins at 5 a.m. on March 3.

We will call you when we finish with your registration and will mail receipts to you. Please include payment with your form.

INCLUSION POLICY

WAITING LISTS

To ensure the safety and enjoyment of others in recreation programs, participants are expected to display appropriate behaviors.

Parks and Recreation staff will discuss behaviors of concern with the participant and his/her family when necessary.

If a course is full you may ask to have your name placed on the waiting list for that course at no cost. The computer system maintains the waiting list in the order persons are placed there.

Staff will notify, in waiting list order, the persons on the list and offer the opportunity to register for the course at that time. Payment for the course will be required at the time of registration.

If you are contacted from a wait list and enrolled for that course, you will be removed from any wait lists for similar courses.
