Bad Weather Policy Changes

In times of poor weather, we will do the best we can to operate with regular hours.  

We are changing our bad weather policy regarding classes.

1. Group Training Classes - We will operate all group training classes as scheduled and all instructors will do their best to be here and on time.
2. Tennis Clinics - We will make the call by 1pm each day about tennis clinics (whether they are on or cancelled). 

If there are any updates or changes to our normal operation, we will post it here on our Blog.
We want everyone to stay safe!

WWU Viking Showdown and FREE 10 & Under Tennis Clinic for the Bellingham and Ferndale Boys & Girls Club Kids

WWU Club Tennis Team will host their annual Viking Showdown Tennis Tournament Fundraiser at the Bellingham Tennis Club on January 13 & 14 and this year has added a free tennis clinic for Boys & Girls club kids.  

This year the WWU Team, in partnership with Mark Toppe, USTA PNW Regional Director and the Bellingham Tennis Club, is also hosting a FREE Tennis Clinic for kids ages 10 & Under from the Bellingham & Ferndale Boys and Girls clubs.  In this unique clinic, each boy or girl will be matched up with one of the college tennis team players – including the visiting teams.  Eric Guenther, captain of the WWU team came up with this idea to help kids learn the joy of tennis.  The clinic will be held for about 30 kids on January 14^th from 1:30-2:30pm.  Interested parents should contact the Boys & Girls Clubs to see if there is still room in the clinic.

The free clinic is designed to help kids learn how to play tennis and further build the confidence of the kids from the Boys and Girls Club and to help them to identify as tennis players. Eric Guenther, Captain of the WWU Club Tennis Team has been volunteering with the various Boys and Girls Club throughout the academic quarter and this event is a culmination of efforts put forth by the Bellingham Tennis Club, the USTA, and the Western team to help the kids form long lasting bonds and friendships, and the chance to develop into great players.

Schools in attendance for the Viking Showdown and free tennis clinic include University of Washington, University of Oregon, Simon Fraser University, University of British Columbia, and hosts Western Washington University.

The Bellingham Tennis Club donates the court time and use of this Club so that all of the Tournament fees are contributed to the WWU Club Tennis Team and the tennis clinic is free.

Fairhaven Fitness Zombies donate $1000 to Blue Skies for Children

Thrillingham was AWESOME! 
We donated a little more than 50% of the net proceeds from Learn the Thriller to Blue Skies for Children and Live Consciously.  Check out this photo of Blue Skies for Children receiving the $1000 big check from the zombies!

There were about 100 zombies who performed the Thriller dance to crowds of thousands in Fairhaven and at Maritime Heritage Park on Halloween.  Amazingly fun ...and raised money for charity!  We also donated $800 to Live Consciously - the group who puts on Thrillingham each year to help defray production costs.

Thanks Zombies, you are horribly awesome! ~ Robin Zombie

ZOMBIANCE

Our new and returning Zombies left the first night of our 4-night learn the dance series having mastered the zombie march and roar turns.  Our head Zombie is Liam Elio who also owns and operates Peace Love Pizza - you can find him at the Saturday market and other events in the Northwest.
