Headed by captain Bob Rozakis, the volleyball players get to stretch their muscles in an atmosphere of camaraderie and fun.The program is so popular that it’s expanding to three times a week in the Spring 2013 session. Tuesday and Wednesday nights’ classes are open to 48 players; Monday class, designed for novice players, maxes out at 24 people. If you’re interested, be sure to register soon because the teams fill up fast.
