Open Tooele High School Tennis Courts

The Issue

The novel Corona Virus has affected members of communities world wide. Yet the healthiest thing to do for individuals is maintain proper habits, especially exercise! I am a senior in high school on the Tooele High Tennis team. Tennis is my go to source for exercise. Not just for me, plenty in the community enjoy playing tennis especially during the nice spring weather we are having. However, our county has them locked up! These extreme measures are unnecessary. On the "do's and don'ts" page of the CDC website they RECOMMEND exercise, at local parks and recreational facilities. While still maintaining social distancing of 6 feet. For more guidelines visit the CDC website. 

The fact is the healthiest, and smartest thing to do is to keep ourselves healthy at this time. The issue is our county has issued the courts to be closed up until June  30th. Not only should they not be locked right now. They should not be locked until that date.

As a senior in high school on the tennis team it is very disappointing to not have a final season in high school. However, this does not stop me and my teammates from wanting to continue practicing, and the least our community could do is allow us to be able to keep playing.

Please sign this action, and allow me, my team mates and other members of the community to get exercise doing something we are passionate about!

Stay Safe!
