Cheering The Tennis Center!
We can hardly wait until tonight’s gala for the Junior Tennis Champions Center at the Swedish ambassador’s residence, so last night we went to the home of the Center’s CEO with top sponsors and supporters.
We snapped journalist and Sports Plus’ Sara Fornaciari with tonight’s top sponsor, GEICO VP Rynthia Rost and her daughter, Real Housewives of Potomac star and Ronald Rost Foundation director Katie Rost.
Over 300 people are coming tonight to support the area’s top tennis training facility, which has developed some of the country’s top juniors. Here, the night’s host and JTCC CEO Ray Benton with Nature Conservancy CEO Mark Tercek, whose son Luke, now at Bowdoin, trained at the Tennis Center.
The host of tonight's gala, Swedish Ambassador Bjorn Lyrvall, is with the night’s host, Humane Society Board member Nina Benton. Tonight's gala is almost sold out, but if you write vpaul@jtcc.org, he will get you a ticket (info in Where to be Scene below).
This year’s honoree, Summit Series founder Elliott Bisnow, is with former ExImBank head and JTCC founder Ken Brody. We all hope to see you tonight.
