Peggy Toczek is part of the THRiVE Through Tennis, Come to the NET program for adults with neurological differences. 🎾 Living with Parkinson’s Disease, Peggy began the program as part of her recovery journey to improve her movement, range of motion, balance and endurance. Along the way, she found even more… “THRiVE gives me a purpose! The people- including instructors, pros, and volunteers- are friendly, like family”.
We’re proud to share Peggy’s story and celebrate how tennis is so much more than exercise—it’s connection and community that extends beyond the court.

✨ CCTC SPOTLIGHT: Sue Onuska ✨ Sue discovered tennis almost by accident. After she and her husband, Jeff, decided to get more active, Sue bought Jeff a gift certificate for tennis lessons. Just before it expired, they took a lesson with Muriel—Sue fell in love with the game!
She’s played on USTA teams for many years—this year both teams advanced to Districts, with one going on to win the State Championship!
After retiring from a career in accounting and sales, Sue stays active by volunteering as a school classroom reading volunteer and coaching on-court with THRiVE Through Tennis.
Outside of tennis, Sue enjoys pickleball, golf, hiking, traveling, and spending time with her great-niece and great-nephew.

Following a beautiful Celebration of Life yesterday, we continue to remember and celebrate our friend and longtime member of our tennis family, Beth Wotawa.

Beth truly loved tennis and was a part of our community for many years. She was a longtime team captain and always brought her love for the game and leadership to the court (see photos in the comment section). One of her goals was to see all four grand slam tournaments — she was able to experience Wimbledon and the French Open — memories she treasured.

Our thoughts are with Beth’s family and all who loved her. If you would like to read more about her life or share a memory on her tribute wall, you can do so by clicking the link below
