GARY HENNING
President

I have been a member of ATC for about 10 years. I have been on the Board for the last three years, serving as President in 2025. I would like to continue serving on the Board, giving back to the club that has meant so much to me. The red clay courts are fantastic, but it is the tennis community of ATC that makes the club extra special.

I want to continue working with my fellow Board Members to make ATC even better, upgrading the courts and tennis programs, while fostering the strong sense of community that already exists.

STEVE ANGLE
Treasurer

I have been a member of the ATC for years and have played in many of the tennis events the ATC has held over the years. I'm a long-term member of the USTA, participating in many of their leagues and tournaments. I have been a member of the Board for three years and currently serve as treasurer.

Professionally, I am a retired mechanical engineer with 20 years of experience in facilities operations and new construction projects at RPI, and eight years as a professional engineering consultant focused on energy conservation in facilities.

Thank you for considering me to continue my position on the Board.

THERESA CARY
Secretary

I have served on the Board for over six years and as Board Secretary since 2022. I welcome the opportunity to continue working with the other ATC board members and our wonderful membership as we strive to improve our summer home on the "red dirt."

Professionally, I worked for the State Education Department (SED) for over 35 years. My last position in SED was Assistant Director of Financial Administration.

I also continue my association with the USTA, being a player and member of the Eastern Grievance Appeals Committee, and a certified USTA and ITA (Intercollegiate Tennis Association) official.

I appreciate your support.

GARY CIMORELLI
Board Member

As a member of ATC for the past 4 years and a current board member, I have been fortunate to see firsthand the committed community of tennis players at this historic tennis facility.

At each meeting, our conversations focus on how we can improve our members' experience. For example, I wish to continue expanding our website and our communications, including the monthly newsletter.

I would be honored to be on the Board of Directors for 2026.

WENDI ENRIGHT
Board Member

I have been a member of the Albany Tennis Club for three years and have found a tennis home. The courts are ideal, but most importantly, everyone is incredibly friendly. This club is a special place.

Professionally, I am a half-owner of Tech Forward, Inc., a half-owner of Albany Stadium Restaurant & Bar, and the Department Chair for the Online Business & Technology College. Previously, I was an Executive Regional Manager with Sportime Tennis Clubs in Schenectady, Manhattan, Westchester, and Long Island.

I have played the sport since I was very young and played USTA and WTT as an adult. I enjoy giving back my time to serving on the Board and deeply appreciate your support.

PETER HOWARD
Board Member

I have been a member of our amazing Albany Tennis Club for the past number of years. I've been involved in so many aspects of tennis since I was 14. Most recently, I have played on numerous USTA teams over the past 40 years and have recently played at the National Senior Games. Presently, I am a Certified Tennis Official for the USTA and College ITA programs.

Professionally, I am retired from the NYS Department of Transportation, where I worked for 37 years as a Civil Engineer and Environmental Specialist. I was also the Secretary-Treasurer and later the State Board Director for our NYS Association of Transportation Engineers.

I have so much respect for the organizational staff, the maintenance staff, the Board, and all the volunteers who make tennis a delight on those beautiful red clay courts. Accordingly, I would enjoy working and contributing as an ATC board member in concert with my tennis philosophy - play hard, have fun, and when in doubt, the opponent's ball is in. I appreciate your consideration.

DAVID KLEIN
Board Member

I found my passion for tennis somewhat later in life and have been a member of the ATC for the last three seasons and a board member in 2025. It has been an overwhelmingly positive experience for me. I appreciate the friendly competition, the social rewards for interacting with other members and staff, and the superior condition of the clay courts and the club overall.

This makes me want to give back by continuing to serve on the Board of Directors and helping solve the club's challenges and direct its future. I am a novelist and writer by profession, and have lived in Delmar for the past 30 years, where my wife, Harriet, and I raised our two children.

BRUCE MCBRIDE
Board Member

The clay courts at 316 Partridge Street are a hub for tennis and community connections. As a 20-year member of the Albany Tennis Club and current Board member (“president emeritus”), I remain deeply committed to our club’s vitality.

I'm primarily focused on advancing key initiatives, including infrastructure improvements and strengthening the newly formed Friends of Albany Tennis Club. I appreciate your support as we continue to enhance this special place.

BRIAN REILLY
Board Member

I've said it to many people: "The Albany Tennis Club is an absolute gem." But beyond the eight pristine red clay courts and interesting history, it's really the people and the community that make it special.

I resumed playing tennis in the summer of 2020 after a long hiatus, and now an evening or weekend match at ATC is one of the best things I look forward to. I've been an ATC member since 2023 and am interested in serving on the Board to help maintain and grow the facilities, programs, and community that I've enjoyed immensely.

Off the courts, I've spent most of my career in cybersecurity and currently work for an online music distributor. I've lived in Delmar for the past 20 years (by way of NJ and DC), where my wife and I have raised our three children. I am but a simple man, with a simple dream. And that dream is to put an ATC member on the moon by 2069.

SONAM SHERPA
Board Member

Having moved to Albany four years ago and joined ATC at the same time, the club has been a steady constant in my life, season after season. The community here is very special, and I have enjoyed the social and competitive play of the many programs at ATC.

Outside of my professional career as a healthcare policy data analyst, I am an active member of the Siena Rugby alumni committee and a volunteer puppy raiser for Guiding Eyes for the Blind.

I am eager to support the Board in sustaining the critical work behind the scenes that makes ATC a special hub for the tennis community in the Capital Region. I look forward to working with everyone, and thank you for your consideration.
