The Boys & Girls Clubs of Sarasota and DeSoto Counties hosted the latest Tennis Ball fundraiser at Michael's On East on April 14. 

The fundraiser, presented by the Elizabeth Moore Sarasota Open and coming off the Joey Gratton Tennis Championship in early April, brought guests to the Michael's event space for a program that started with mingling and bidding on silent auction items before it was time to head indoors.
