Building on our success We always start the new year with a new spirit … a chance to reset and recommit, or to launch something fresh. We can look back and reminisce while also looking forward with aspiration, somehow energized by both. I hope you enjoyed your holiday season and that the WAC was a part of the fun. e Club had a great run, from the Pumpkin Swim through New Year's Eve, a series of sold-out events creating great experiences and memories for thousands of WAC members and guests. Congratulations to our wonderful WAC team members for fashioning and executing original takes on traditional events as well as new uniquely WAC occasions. Club Programs, Food & Beverage, Marketing, Engineering—all departments rocked it! And the fun continues in 2023! Spend time in 1930, the new lobby-level coffee shop and workspace; peruse the new Club Shop retail area; and experience the two new innovative, restorative, and wonderfully dichotomous offerings that are cryotherapy and an infrared sauna in the 4th Floor Wellness Center and Spa. As the new year begins, the WAC continues to build on success and offer new and more to the membership. e new-look and functionality of lobby spaces, new fitness and wellness equipment and amenities, and new affinity group programs illustrate the commitment to the Club's values: Leadership, Excellence, Integrity, Service, and Sensitivity. We will continue to earn our rec- ognition as a 5 Star Platinum Club and one of America's top five athletic clubs. ank you for your support and enthusiasm! Your club is here for you. If you haven't been in the Clubhouse for a while, you are encouraged to come in and see what you are missing. e WAC is better than ever!
