HISTORY
The Olde Forest Racquet Club was founded in 1973 by a group of avid tennis players from Alamance County. OFRC takes pride in maintaining its member-owned, member-managed facility. Members are regularly asked to serve on the Board of Directors, Committees and volunteer for special events. Some of the original founding members are still very active in the club by assisting and coordinating activities.
As the club continues to grow and prosper, we are always looking for new ideas from our membership. If you have suggestions or ideas, please call or email a staff member. We look forward to serving you.
