Six-year-old Ryder Coolidge played tennis with his mother Amanda, who said they play tennis as a family. She thinks it’s an “awesome facility to have in Langford.”
Amanda said they usually go to the tennis courts at Westshore Parks and Recreation Centre during the good-weather months, but once the rain comes it can be hard to find activities to do.
Many others joined in the fun, whether is was just a bit of volleying or serious play.
The general public guest fees to use the court are $30 for the indoor courts and $20 for the outdoor courts. People can book a court up to three days in advance by calling 250-744-2327 or by visiting www.bearmountain.ca.
