Bill Kallenberg has been a long-time friend of Tennis Recruiting. His photos have appeared in Tennis Recruiting articles for years, and we recently began working with him more formally - Bill took photos for TennisRecruiting.net at Kalamazoo this summer as well as at the U.S. Open. Many of you have seen him at junior tournaments over the years.
Bill Kallenberg is a fixture in junior and college tennis
Those of you in college have probably met him as well. Bill is the official photographer for many different college programs around the country.
Today, Bill is in need. A series of health issues have led to an abdominal aortic aneurysm that will require a significant - and expensive - surgery in the near future.
You can read Bill's story in his own words on his GoFundMe campaign page, and Lisa Stone has some nice words on her Parenting Aces blog.
If you know Bill, please read his story and consider reaching out to him (Facebook, CapturedInAction.com) or lending a hand (GoFundMe).
