Welcome to the 2009 Rocky Mountain Open!

It's our pleasure to welcome you to the only GLTA sanctioned tournament in Colorado and the entire Rocky Mountain region. Your host for this annual event is the Denver Area Tennis Enthusiasts, otherwise known as D.A.T.E.

D.A.T.E. is the premier Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender tennis group in the metro Denver area formed to promote goodwill. Close to 150 inviduals come together from May through August of each year to improve their tennis games and to have fun while doing so. Members pay a modest annual membership fee which is used to pay the costs associated with reserving tennis courts throughout the season. More information on D.A.T.E. can be found on our website at www.denverareatennis.net.
