Glynn County's Finance Committee meeting on December 5, 2024, highlighted the ongoing support for youth recreational programs, particularly in tennis. The committee discussed the current offerings at Epworth, which has become the primary location for tennis clinics, attracting around 30 children weekly during the summer and 12 to 15 during the school year.

The tennis programs cater to beginners and intermediate players aged 4 to 14, focusing on drills and skills development. This approach contrasts with other local organizations, such as Golden Ox Tennis, which offers more advanced training and league play for junior players. The committee emphasized the importance of these recreational programs in fostering youth engagement and skill development in the community.

In addition to tennis, the committee explored the potential for expanding recreational classes and camps, ensuring they do not overlap with existing programs. This strategic planning aims to enhance the variety of activities available to local youth, promoting a well-rounded recreational experience.

The discussions underscored Glynn County's commitment to supporting youth sports and recreational activities, which play a vital role in community development and engagement. As these programs continue to evolve, the Finance Committee remains focused on providing accessible and enriching opportunities for the county's younger residents.
