Summer Updates from the Lake Oswego Tennis Center
Hello!
With Memorial Day a couple of days away, Summer is just around the corner.
Let's start with some kudos from the neighbors. Before the April Uplands Neighborhood Association meeting, a neighbor pulled me aside and wanted to thank the tennis community for their respect while driving through the neighborhood. They appreciated everyone's conscientiousness on both speed and obeying stop signs and are hoping that will continue now that the center has been open for a few months.
Tennis Center Seasonal Lottery Submission Form OPENS June 1
Interested in having a weekly reservation for the same day & time? The Seasonal lottery is the best way to secure consistent court time. Seasonal reservations are made for a 4.5-month period (Fall/Winter and renewable in Winter/Spring)
The 2022-23 seasonal reservation season is set to finish over the next of couple weeks. The lottery submission form for the 2023-24 season opens on June 1st. Once the submission form closes on July 16th, phone calls will begin over the next few days.

Please wait in the lobby for everyone to arrive and then proceed to the court on your reservation.
As seasonal reservations end, some keycards are set to expire over the next few weeks. To renew your keycard, call the L.O. Tennis Center at 503-635-5550 or stop by the front desk. Keycard renewal fee of $20 to extend for an additional 12 months. We do not need to print you a new card.

Tennis Center Seasonal Lottery
Seasonal Reservations
Current seasonal reservations will end on May 31. The lottery submissions for the 2023-2024 season will open on June 1, and close on July 16. If you’re on the email list for this newsletter, you’ll receive notification on June 1 that the lottery signups are open. If you're not subscribed to this newsletter and you'd like to receive the seasonal email, please send a request to tennis@ci.oswego.or.us.
What is the Lottery?
The bad news: there’s no cash prize. The good news: the lottery is your opportunity to purchase a standing court reservation for approximately 20 weeks, from September 1-January 18. You have the option to renew your time from January 19-May 31.
While the lottery is open, between June 1 and July 16, fill out the signup form. You will be asked for the names of two people who will be available to receive a phone call on July 19-21. One of those people can be you, if you’re available. The other person could be your spouse, playing partner, someone in your group, or anyone who can make the decision about which time slot you’d like. When you submit the form, you’ll receive a confirmation email.
When the lottery closes on July 16, we draw names and the phone calls begin on July 19. If yours is the first name drawn, you (or your designated person) will receive the first call and have first pick of available times. Then the second name will be called. You get the idea. It’s very important that you and/or your designee(s) are available to take the call. Once you select your time, you provide a credit card, and we charge you the normal hourly rate ($22) for the reservation. You pay for the 20-ish weeks up front.
FAQ
A few things to note:
1. We don’t refund seasonal reservations, but we will work with you to find a new time if it turns out the one you chose won’t work after all.
2. Your seasonal reservation includes holidays. If you purchase a seasonal on Mondays, that includes Christmas Day in 2023. You don’t have to use the court, obviously, but that day is included in the reservation, and you are certainly welcome to use it if you choose.
3. You are responsible for accessing your reserved court. If your reservation falls on a holiday and the Tennis Center office is closed, or if it’s outside normal office hours, you will definitely need a card key. It’s a good idea for at least one person in your group to have a card key, anyway, because the door could be locked due to staff illness, inclement weather, or other unforeseeable events.
The lottery is by far our most popular offering. This is your opportunity to guarantee yourself a court in those dark, rainy months when indoor court time is hard to come by.

Updated Tennis Center Reopening Timeline
Hello, Tennis Center Users:
We hope you are enjoying the wonderful September weather. As we get closer to October, we have new information regarding the Tennis Center.
Construction of the new lobby, restrooms, and viewing room areas is finished, and final inspections are in process. You may view the Tennis Center’s progress on the Tennis Center Rehabilitation page of the City’s website.
Now that the new construction is finished, final repairs and preparations are underway with contractors in place to paint the court area and resurface the courts. Barring any unforeseen holdups, we will be ready to reopen in early December.
This means that seasonal reservations, hourly court reservations, City League practices and matches, and private lessons will resume when we reopen in December.
In January, winter and youth and adult classes will begin, along with USTA matches. Look for our class schedules in the Parks and Recreation 2023 Winter/Spring Activity Guide.
Registration for winter and spring classes opens Monday, December 5, 10am for Lake Oswego residents, and on Monday, December 12, 10am for all others.
Upon reopening, we will transition to a new court reservation platform, Court Reserve. We will have more specific information regarding Court Reserve when our LOTC platform is active.
We are very grateful for the many people putting in a tremendous amount of effort behind the scenes to get the doors open as soon as possible. We are eager to return to action, and we know you are, too!

Tennis Center Renovation Closure Extending Beyond September
Hello, Tennis Center Users:
We are reaching out to you again with this news announcement. Due to unforeseen circumstances that arose this week, the opening of the Lake Oswego Indoor Tennis Center has been delayed beyond September. This is updated information since the July 29th newsletter. We will share updates as they become available, however you can also follow the project here on the City's website. Although we will remain closed for the foreseeable future, the Tennis Center phone number will ring at my desk, and if you leave a message, I'll return your call as quickly as possible.
If you see tennis classes scheduled this fall in the LOPR activities guide, all Fall registration for tennis classes and programming is currently on hold until a reopening date is determined. Once a reopening date is set and confirmed, we will reopen and reorganize programming for registration and will send out a notice on when registration is available.
If you are a member of a City League team, be assured that we are working hard to have options available. Information regarding the City League Schedule will be communicated to the team captains from the LOTC board.
If you scheduled a seasonal reservation through the Lottery, the day/time in which you scheduled your seasonal will still be held. No payments have been run as of this date. Once we have a reopening date we will calculate and prorate the fee for the remaining weeks and confirm with each party before running payment.
If you registered a USTA team to play out of the Lake Oswego Tennis Center, we are working with USTA PNW and other facilities to ensure that your teams will have a new facility to compete out of this Fall. Once a facility is confirmed, we will reach out to those teams about which facilities are able to accommodate you this season.
If you are a participant, parent, or volunteer in our Special Olympics program, we will work with LOSD to reserve the Lakeridge High School tennis courts as we did this past fall for as many sessions as possible. We will work with Gerri Allen to ensure equipment is available for this to take place.
We wanted to also take this opportunity to thank all of you for your continued interest and support of the Lake Oswego Indoor Tennis Center. While we understand that this news is frustrating to many of you, you have been patient and enthusiastic about the changes coming to the facility. We apologize for this change in schedule and think you will be very happy with the results of the renovated facility. We appreciate your sticking with us through all of these challenges and we look forward to seeing you inside the Tennis Center once we are able to reopen!
Thank you,
Ian Miller

Seasonal Lottery
The lottery of seasonal court time from September 2022 – May 2023 is now closed. All seasonal lottery calls were made last week by Tennis Center staff and court time is beginning to fill.
