FLEMING LAKE GROUP, INC.

Mr. Mitchelle Lake
Managing Director of Fleming Lake Group, Inc.

Mitchelle Lake is the founder and CEO of the Anguilla Tennis Academy. His undying devotion to his country speaks for itself and is tangible in the hearts of the many children he has aided in not only athletic prowess but character as well.  His dream of bringing tennis to the island of Anguilla began while attending Gardner-Webb University in North Carolina. He realized that he was afforded an opportunity to receive an education free of charge based on the fact that he excelled at tennis.

In the summer of 1996 Mr. Lake decided to give back to his fellow countrymen by dedicating three weeks of the Summer to provide a free summer tennis camp for children on the island who possessed an interest in tennis. Although his dream was to give back to the community, the overwhelming support he received made him realize that the facilities were inadequate on the island.

Therefore, he set his goals high and with much help from his country and members of the international community, the state of the art tennis facility was constructed. Mr. Lake plans to keep the program as a non-profit organization with all proceeds being donated to the Anguillian children.

Mr. Lake is truly an exceptional human being whose relentless devotion to his country is doing much for Anguilla’s youth. He has been quoted as saying, “My life is what it is today because of tennis and all I want to do now is give back so that other young people can have similar experiences like mine. The Anguilla Tennis Academy is my lifelong dream and I am proud of the children and other Anguillians for supporting me in this worthwhile endeavor. The cause is greater than the cost and for that reason this project must be done.”
