Racket Replay Program:
Donate your old tennis rackets so someone can enjoy a new sport.
The Racket Replay Program recycles old tennis rackets by collecting, repairing and sharing them. Used rackets are donated by community members into drop bins distributed to area clubs, schools and businesses. These rackets will be available to borrow from local community libraries and donated to individual players or groups who show an interest in the game and may not be able to afford tennis rackets.
The Vermont Dream Project, Inc. will make sure that any rackets needing repair work are fixed before they are shared with the community. This will be done by generous donations of new strings or grips.
Some of the organizations that will receive rackets are the King Street Center Kids on the Ball Programs, local community libraries, and the Parks and Recreation Department USTA Quick Start Programs. In addition to tennis rackets, monetary donations are greatly appreciated and needed. The money collected will be used toward repairing and restringing broken racquets, sending the racquets to the designated groups and purchasing tennis balls to share. Help support the Racket Replay Program by mailing your donations to:
