Anniversary Party & Member Appreciation a SMASH!

Thanks to everyone who attended our Anniversary Party and Member Appreciation Night on May 27th to celebrate 9 years of ownership by Doug & Robin Robertson and 36 years for the Club! With about 80 Members here, Matthew Iwersen had a good time arranging the round robin tennis event for many to enjoy. Ginny Spooner gave away lots of prizes Members spun the wheel to win - Tic tacs, gift certificates, socks, water bottles and some big prizes too. Scott Young finished up his cycling class in time to join the fun. Good food, great company, and a lovely evening. Thank you all!




Ski to Sea Triumph!


The Bellingham Tennis Club "You Got Served" 2009 Ski to Sea team had a terrific time on what had to be one of the most beautiful Ski to Sea days ever! Everyone met their personal goals on their legs and the team finished 158th overall (out of 411 teams) and 6th in the Whatcom County Mixed division. Nicole said she got to ski behind the guy in a speedo and suspenders (who turned out to be Robin's neighbor)and Robin (her first time ever in the canoe)was especially proud that she and Ginny stayed upright the entire 18 miles with only two encounters with shrubbery and one unintended beaching.

Here's our team:
X-C Ski: Nichole Connor
Downhill Ski: Meilani Obra
Running: Bailey Shewchuk
Road Bike: Doug Robertson
Canoe: Ginny Spooner & Robin Robertson
Mt. Bike: Scott Young
Kayak: Mary Rawlins

Indoor Cycling

Cycling can be for anyone, is easy on the knees, burns loads of calories and YOU always determine how hard you work. We offer 14 Lemond RevMaster spinning bikes with SPD clipless pedals as well as cages for athletic shoes. Or you may bring your own bike to use on one of our 7 trainers. All classes are a terrific introduction to indoor cycling for anyone at all ability levels to increase your cardio capacity and leg strength. Learn about pedaling technique and focus on building power, speed, and endurance.
