Aetna To Sponsor Children’s Activities At The Open |

For the second year, Aetna is sponsoring children’s activities at the US Open and is determined to deliver twice the fun as part of its three-year sponsorship agreement with the USTA. Aetna’s sponsorship provides support for children’s activities on Arthur Ashe Kids Day on August 25; the Arthur Ashe Essay & Art Contest Luncheon on August 26; and the ICON Awards on September 4. Beyond the US Open, Aetna and the USTA will continue delivering community-based programs that bring tennis to children in urban neighborhoods nationwide.

Aetna’s three-year sponsorship agreement includes the following.

Co-sponsorship of a tennis court of fun physical activities with USTA Serves, the National Charitable Foundation of the USTA, during Arthur Ashe Kids Day on August 25. The “USTA Serves/Aetna Tennis Skills” court will feature stations to keep kids moving and engaged through a number of tennis and physical activities.

Arthur Ashe Essay & Art Contest Luncheon

Sponsorship of the Arthur Ashe Essay & Art Contest Luncheon on Sunday, August 26. The luncheon will honor the 14 national 2012 Arthur Ashe Essay & Art Contest (AAEAC) winners who will attend for a weekend full of celebration and experiential learning. During the luncheon, each of the national AAEAC winners will address the audience about the personal impact of the contest and the weekend. An event of the USTA’s National Junior Tennis and Learning (NJTL) network, which was founded by Ashe, the luncheon is hosted annually by former NYC Mayor David Dinkins in the hospitality area on the grounds of the US Open the day before the tournament begins.
