Lafayette Health Club, which has been a fixture on the Lamorinda scene for over 31 years, will close it’s doors on May 5, 2012.

After searching unsuccessfully for an alternative location, LHC owner Debbie Swigert made the difficult decision to close the club.

The club will be sorely missed by its over 600 members who will have their memberships transferred (at the same dues) to Walnut Creek Sports and Fitness.  As a result of the club’s closing, all equipment and furnishings is being sold. Interested parties should contact  Ms. Swigert.

The Lafayette Chamber would like to thank Debbie and her team for all the support they have shown our Chamber Members over the years.  A member since 1994, Debbie devoted many hours to the Lafayette Reservoir Run, Health and Business events and programs that enriched our community and our lives.

Here’s a recently produced video that highlights some of the many programs LHC offered. Thank you Debbie!  The neighborhood will miss you dearly!

Debbie invites all current and past members to a “goodbye party” on Saturday, May 5th “to the LHC we all know and have loved for the last 31 years!” The festivities start at 4:30 and since it is Cinco de Mayo they will have margaritas and chips and dips Etc.  The club will provide  blenders and ice. Guests are invited to bring their favorite margarita mix (virgin or non virgin).

Debbie promises “We will go out with a BANG!!”
