I wanted to take a minute to welcome you all to our new website. We’re thrilled to have a new digital presence, one that matches all the hard work we’ve put into the club renovations.

When I joined the Southport Racquet Club team, over 25 years ago, there was no internet. There weren’t even any cell phones. Now we can manage our class schedule through a smart phone. Soon, members will be able to sign up for classes, reserve a squash court, and even pay, online. I’m still blown away, in terms of how technology has progressed, and how quickly.

Even the equipment at the club, and the classes, have evolved. I can remember trying to lobby the board of directors for our first spinning bike, many years ago. Now we’ve got a fleet of bikes, and a host of other machines that didn’t exist a couple decades back.

Anyway, we’re thrilled to be using all these technological advances to help members achieve their health and wellness goals. This blog, for example, will be dedicated to providing regular content, meant to inspire members to step up their commitment to a healthy lifestyle, through the sharing of fitness tips, recipes, success stories, and relevant news, from our team of experts, and even club members.

If you have not see not seen the new club renovations, or had a chance to meet what I consider to be the best assembled team of health and fitness professionals in the state of Connecticut, stop on by.

All the best, Tim
