Courtside Club of Los Gatos Raises $41K for Hospice of the Valley

Proceeds benefit nonprofit's hospice, palliative care and grief services and programs for adults and children in Silicon Valley.

Courtside Club of Los Gatos, 14675 Winchester Blvd., raised more than $41,000 for Hospice of the Valley of Northern California during its third annual "Hits for Hospice" Pro-Am Tennis Tournament and Summer Soiree held Aug. 18.

“Hits for Hospice was certainly a hit with our players and guests this year,” said Erin Rucker Oto, interim general manager of Courtside Club. “We had 42 pros, 44 amateur tennis players, and over 200 dinner guests who gathered to enjoy a sunny summer day playing tennis, and a special evening with good friends, gourmet food and wine, and beautiful music, all in support of Hospice of the Valley.”

Sally Adelus, president and CEO of Hospice of the Valley, said: “We are so appreciative of Courtside Club, the event co-chairs, the planning committee, staff, members, corporate sponsors, donors, volunteers, pro-am players and guests that made this event possible. Their generosity and support of our mission is overwhelming.”
