The Ehren family look like they're fresh out of a fashion magazine ad. "More important than that, is their hearts are in the right place," said Roberta Seid, tournament director. "We all have priorities, and the way Todd described the Great Neck UCF Tennis Tournament, we know UCF is right up there!"

Todd sells electric supplies out of Long Island City, but has lived in Great Neck all his life. His wife Jodie (as of 1991) is a dedicated and supportive wife and mother, who still finds the time to run, lift weights and go biking with the family. Todd said, "A lot of things I have are because of her. In 1984 (when I was still in high school) and every year since, I have been a UCF tennis participant. I've met so many top players in our town. It was great to have won the Men's Singles Open A last year. I can walk through town and see friends that I could "kibbitz" with, about the tournament. My dad and my brother Dean (who is one of the pros of Fresh Meadow) have also entered the UCF tournament at one time or another.

My whole family derives pleasure from the many activities our town offers. My son, Noah, will begin Open Door (where my wife Jodie is on the board of directors) in September. My daughter Amanda goes to Ms. Holly at Great Neck Music Center, takes swimming lessons at NY Sports, knows how to use the mouse on the computer and at the age of 3 is starting tennis lessons at Wildwood, where we are members.

This year, I finally took a break, but felt if I sponsored the UCF Tennis and the good causes it gives to, I would still be a part of it. After all the tournament, Paul Wallack, and Roberta Seid have always been good to me. I'd like to return the favor and feel a part of our wonderful community."
