Weymouth Club

The safety initiatives championed by Weymouth Club have definitely been welcomed by its customers. The business is now operating at 80% of its active membership base. As an outdoor activity, the club’s tennis facilities certainly received huge support, providing one of the activities that a majority of members felt comfortable taking part in. “We also had a tremendous advantage in the marketplace because of the amount of space that we have,” Linn explains. “It meant we could be very flexible by moving, for example, our group exercise classes into our youth tennis center. We could really spread people out. But that meant there was also some frustration because we had to abide by the same guidelines as a small, 5,000 square foot facility.” “We also brought in a product called Viking Pure,” Steve adds. “This is an anti-bacterial spraying system that is completely green and has a kill time for all bacteria and viruses of 10 seconds. We spent a lot of time and money researching the most effective cleaning solution that would allow people to feel safe but also get on with their workout.” In addition to Weymouth Club’s core fitness offerings, it also offers a number of high-quality camps for children and parents to enjoy. “When you have children, summer days are incredibly long,” says Sally. “I was talking to my sister, who is a school teacher, and we started discussing the possibility of starting a summer camp to keep kids entertained when school is out. That was 34 years ago, and the camps are still going strong to this day.” Weymouth Club now offers camps for 12 or 13 weeks in the summer, depending on when Labor Day falls, as well as during every school vacation and one-off days, like Columbus Day, Veterans Day, Martin Luther King Day, and the day after Thanksgiving. The camps started off being centers for tennis, fitness, and the arts, but have WEYMOUTH CLUB
