Proposal to name Petersburg Tennis Complex after Bruce M. Stone
The United States Tennis Association of Kentucky is proposing that the new and improved tennis facility at Petersburg Park be named after Bruce M. Stone, who they called "the most influential tennis-oriented individual" in the Newburg area and in the African-American tennis community of Louisville.
Stone is a founding father of the Rising Stars of Kentucky Tennis, a staff member of USTA Kentucky since 1997, and has worked as a community coordinator, coordinator of junior tennis, and now works as the USTA's state schools coordinator, delivering in-service training to physical education teachers from throughout the state.
He is a retired employee of General Electric and, according to the USTA, a "positive influence on hundreds of youngsters and their families, especially in the Newburg and West End areas of Louisville."
Please give us your thoughts on this proposal below. |
