Dear All,
As a retired Tennis Professional and Land Developer, I can fully commit the hours required to do a good job for
Miami Beach. My commitment to our Community has been by doing, not just talking. Over the past 17 years I have
shared my expertise with Kevin Smith, Andy Plotkin and other staff members of the Department of Parks and
Recreation. I have been playing recreational doubles every morning at Flamingo Park for the last 17 years and have
contributed to its morphing into a top of the line facility.
Resume and Qualifications :
I graduated from Temple University in 1966. I then served two years in the United States Army during the
Vietnam Conflict. I was honorably discharged. After my military service I built and ran tennis facilities with a
primary school friend. We had five different locations with a total of 52 indoor courts. I did this for twelve
years during which I played and taught Tennis professionally. After my tennis career I partnered with an
established Builder who taught me the business. During that time we built many Gated Communities
that included Golf and Tennis facilities.We were partners for twenty eight years, until I married Barbara and retired
to Florida. The best decision I ever made.
Very truly yours,
Chris Growald
