I try not to get in the way--- I am not in charge. Mr. Chang and Ms. D. Lang are doing a great job. I try to bring snacks, fruit and water when needed. Sometime Ms. Lang and I just walk the track.
Last week in Splendor Tournament , I stayed 5 hrs. and D. Lang and drove around to the different locations--- I enjoyed the adventure-- even if we got lost more than once.
EVERYONE IS DOING A GREAT JOB AND GIVING THEIR BEST.
PLAN to go to Bay Town tournament Friday and district next week.
I have been walking the Willow brook Mall every morning 3 to 4 miles----feel like I am getting stronger----massage today--TSU tomorrow-- Also, ordered shirts for River Oaks today--every day there is something to do.
Sun and Mon. I worked the TRTA Convention at the Westin at the Galleria---I am getting much better traveling to and from and parking and finding my car again.
Marg. and I had a good time together Monday--------------------enjoyed workshops and company of alot of older folks who don't want retirement benefits changed. We have a battle ahead.
District is next week and Bob and Mike come to town the following week.
I am so busy-- didn't know how I had time to work 50 to 60 hrs. a week for so long.
Past my bed time.
AGAIN, THANK YOU MR. CHANG AND MS. LANG FOR LOVING MY TENNIS KIDS.

New Caney Tournament--- Many Locations----I traveled to New Caney and Huffman sites. Got to visit many coaches and players--- Ms. Lang and I enjoyed the track and solving problems of the world today--Mr. Chang and crew were going strong and working well together. They were doing fine---- glad that I came------good memories.
Met Husband for supper at Joe's Crap Shack and then to a play at Lone Star College at Cy Fair. Biloxi Blues was outstanding---Sat. was full of babysitting grand daughters --three---nap and God Daughters Baby Shower--Then to West Columbia to visit with mother in law.
A great weekend-- my friend Marg. and I start walking again in the morning at Willowbrook Mall. Then I need to go the Post Office and mail--again---my pass port stuff------had to redo-------for our trip to Poland in May.
Life is never boring-- I am keeping busy--- but I will always miss my tennis program.
After 40 years of working full time and coaching-------I have a big adjustment to make.
Keep up the good work and take care of Coach Lang and Coach Chang for me.
Love,
Coach L. A. Hrncir

Sept 30th
It has been a wild few weeks---- the team tennis team is coming together-- Axel Barron has left-- NF was not giving him a contract and he has a child to support-- --
Dorothy Lang was my assistant two years-- now assistant to Mr. Chang-- will work well with the girls as well as the boys-- she knows the tournaments and coaches------------------------------------------------------------
I will continue to work with UIL paperwork and clothes and ice, etc for the rest of the fall season----------I felt so good at GCM the 30th--- Mr. Chang is doing as amazing job-- he stepped up to the plate when no one else would-- and Dorothy Lang was always there-----------------------------------------------------------------------a rock.
I am going to back off more---they have it together-----------------------------------------I retired-- just did not want my program to vanish
They do not need me to follow them-----I have had my time in the sun-- it is their time in the sun.
We, all coaches, will go to Newks the first week of December--we will pay our own way--- hope to give I. Dutchover of Galena Park the Loretta Ann Hrncir Dedication Award. Such a fine--talent young man who is there for the kids.
It is Sat. morning and I realize that I worry too much at times---- have to back off more---- Husband and I are going to Galveston Sun and Mon. for our 41st Wedding Anniversary----------------------------------------------the time does fly.
Tennis Rocks!

Today is Sept 16: Alot has happened in a month
It was not until Sept 6th --when my tennis players did not show up at GCM---that I learned that there was no coach--no tennis coach--after my years of growth and hard work
Needless to say Mr. Chang and Mr. Barron stepped up to the plate and took over-- I gave Mr. Chang many books and videos to use---he is learning-- and Axel Barron---an ex student-- he is the assistant---- only because he does not have a degree.
I am taking care of UIL paperwork, physicals, issue uniforms and shoes, meeting deadlines--rescheduled GCM matches to Sept 30
The new coaches are trying--they just need to be firmer and not let the kids pull them apart--- no good cop--bad cop-- I did call the kids that went to the Davis Cup with me-----Worked with these folks--- don't let this program die------ I did not leave you---- I retired-- still helping and still planning on River Oaks and Davis Cup stuff---I think positive.
PLEASE WORK WITH THE NEW COACHES AND PRACTICE-- DO NOT GIVE EXCUSES--DO NOT CAUSE ANY PROBLEMS--- YOU ARE LEADERS ON OUR CAMPUS.
LOVE, COACH HRNCIR

Tomorrow is Aug. 22nd-- First Day of School
Wish everyone a great school year and a super tennis season.
I worked for about 5 hrs. Friday morning at the Library-- Helping Ms. Cover son and Ms. Williamson---helping teachers--visiting-- putting up 6 bulletin Boards of FUN TENNIS STUFF FROM THE DAVIS CUP IN JULY.
Rita's collage was framed and went to the Admin. Building in July.
These are my best-- had so much to work with-- a great adventure and quest.
After teaching swimming for 6 weeks--went to San Antonio with college friend, Marg. Brown--then to DC with 9 yrs. old grand child to visit youngest son and his wife, Kelly---we had a great time and I feel like a walking machine.
Dr. gave me lots of exercises to do for my back----keeping busy---
Went to Taste of Texas tonight--celebrate 40 yrs-- an I do not report to work tomorrow-- praying for all the teachers, students and staff--- WE WANT NORTH FOREST ISD. TO BE STRONG AND NOT BE CLOSED-----
THIS YEAR WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
DO YOUR BEST EVERY DAY.
