This week at the Chippewa Racquet club, i decided to do a little exploring. I wandered the halls of the club looking for something new to observe. The place with the most activity was the weight room. While I was observing, I noticed that most of the people there were working out with a friend or someone that they knew. The majority of the talks were about the recent super bowl and "the catch." It all started with the weight trainers talking amongst each other but soon turned into a big discussion involving everyone in the. Most of the people couldn't believe that Eli had lead the Giants to beat the undefeated Patriots in a such a great game.
I soon left the weight room to explore some more. I made my way up to the tennis area and observed some matches. It looked as if there was some sort of tournament taking place. Also, I noticed that as people came into the club, the secretary politely greeted them and had a short conversation with most guests. This part of the club really impressed me, I like the sense of comradely I feel when I am at the club. As the matches continued, I noticed that some people were beginning to get upset with their level of play and began to fall apart on the court. after their matches were over the players would walk up the stairs to where i was observing and talk about what they did or didn't do in the match.
