Highland Open 2013

The 2013 Jim Crane State Farm Highland Open tennis tournament, presented by the Highland Park Tennis Association is now in the books. Thanks to all the players, donors, sponsors, committee members, family members, spectators, tennis fans and BREC staff who made the tournament such a success.

The tournament raised $19,815 for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, bringing the total contributed since 2009 to $99,593!

In addition, for the fourth year in a row, the Highland Open exceeded its goal of 65 Rose sponsors. For 2013, the tournament garnered 72 Rose sponsors with all of the $7,200 raised going directly to fight cystic fibrosis.

We look forward to another great Highland Open in 2014!  Mark your calendar now for April 4-6.
