“This alex rovello memorial foundation is formed under chapter 65 of the oregon revised statues (hereinafter referred to as the "oregon nonprofit corporation act") subject to the limitations stated in the articles of incorporation. The purpose of this corporation will be to engage in any lawful activities, none of which are for profit, for which corporations may be organized under the oregon nonprofit corporation act (or its corresponding future provisions). This corporation's primary purpose is for the care and preservation of the alex rovello memorial courts at berkeley park and to promote, develop and enhance the lifetime sport of tennis, all within the meaning of 501 (c) 3 of the internal revenue code of 1986, as now in effect or as may thereafter be amended (the "code") and the oregon excise tax law of 1929, as set forth in oregon revised statues 317.080.”

“To provide support for the care and preservation of the alex rovello memorial courts at berkeley park and to promote, develop and enhance the lifetime sport of tennis. Needless to say, continual court and area maintenance is a critical ongoing cost. It is anticipated that the courts will need to be resurfaced in three to five years at a cost of 20,000. The many hours we spend cleaning the courts, yearly power-washing and a weekly landscaping service have extended the expected seven year wear period. On june 5th we began a new tradition at the courts, the alex rovello memorial award for cleveland high school's most outstanding boy's tennis player. The award was initiated by cleveland high school's boy's tennis coach, art shapiro. Winning players from 2014 through 2019 were recognized in an on-court ceremony. It is worth noting that alex had coached some of these players when he worked at the junior tennis programs at reed college. To keep our circle of support expanding we are launching a new initiative, alex rovello memorial foundation volunteers. A number of activities proposed for 2020, clinics and day events for all ages, would be enriched with hands on support.”
