Michael Summers is the best tennis professional to have ever come to Washington DC. In the past three years, he has created a world-class children's program. He has won Tennis Pro of the year. He has brought life to a sport that is rapidly declining in participants. In a time when the government can offer few good services, the National Park Service discovered a gem when they hired Michael into the East Potomac Tennis facility.


Treat him fairly!

Don't let him go!

I have been hearing so many stories from families about how Michael changed their children's lives on the court. The lack of response from the National Park Service is frustrating but it only confirms that we have to keep pushing for an answer.

Seeing this kind of movement in such a short time shows just how much Michael has changed our community for the better. It is clear I am not the only one who refuses to lose such an incredible mentor and coach.

Michael is the only reason my kids actually enjoy sports. He connects with them like no one else. This would be a massive mistake for the park.

My son has learned so much from him. He is such a patient coach and really cares about the kids development. Please reconsider.

He saved the tennis center. It was empty before he got there. Why would they fire someone who is actually succeeding?

Give the man a contract renewal already. Hard to find coaches that good.
