Have Fun & Compete!

Club Website Attacked!

Our website was attacked over the weekend!  Apparently Microsoft issued 12 patches over the weekend and before our fabulous IT guy could get them all applied, some nasty crawler leeched onto our website.

During this time before we cleansed and sterilized our site, if you clicked on the link provided by the leech, you would have been sent to a russian website.  Damn those spies!  My IT guy tells me that your computer was really only at risk if you clicked the link.

Our site has been secure since Tuesday, but took a couple of days to be recertified by the big boy search engines of google and firefox.  We are now fully back in action.

Sorry about any distress this may have caused you.

Phase III Renovation Complete!

All 5 courts are re-opened and they look fantastic!  Not only the the courts LOOK better, they ARE better - we are 23% brighter on the courts.  That is innovation....brighter lights without using more electricity.  Now THAT is just what we wanted!

Grand Slammers Tennis Camp at BHS Today

Summer has returned to Bellingham and we will hold the Grand Slammers Tennis Camp at the Bellingham High School tennis courts. The forecast looks very promising for the rest of the week so don't forget your hats, water bottle, and sunscreen.

Grand Slammers Tennis Camp Indoors Today

The Grand Slammers Tennis Camp will be held here at the Bellingham Tennis Club (Monday July 24) due to the wet weather. We are located at 800 McKenzie Ave in Fairhaven. The camp starts at 9am and ends at 12 noon. We will see you where the courts are always dry and we are always getting fit, playing hard, and enjoying life!

Bellingham Herald Features Our Renovations!

Bellingham tennis club owners reinvest in core business

By DAVE GALLAGHER — THE BELLINGHAM HERALD


The most profitable option in business isn't always the best one, and that's something Doug and Robin Robertson have realized with their tennis club.

The Robertsons own Bellingham Tennis Club as well as Fairhaven Fitness at 800 McKenzie Ave. They are in the midst of a major renovation, which includes fixing the roof, resurfacing the tennis courts and improving the lighting. It's a project that will cost more than $200,000 and is expected to be completed at the end of summer. The facility is still in use during the remodel, but a grand re-opening celebration is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 8.
