PRESIDENT’S LETTER
Dear fellow members,
As summer approaches, there’s a noticeable lift in energy throughout the Club. The patios are open, the harbour views are on full display, and our members—whether here for a meeting, a margarita, or a moment of calm—are soaking it all in. This is when Terminal City Club shines brightest.
Last month, your Board held a strategic retreat—a focused, future-looking session where we dug into what makes TCC special and how we ensure its continued success. One theme that came up repeatedly was ownership. Not the financial kind, but a mindset. As members, you are owners of this Club. That lens—thinking like owners—shapes how we approach decisions, investments, and the member experience.
During the retreat, we heard from Club Benchmarking, which compared our financials to peer clubs across Canada and the United States. One point stood out: joining Terminal City Club is still too modestly priced. That might sound odd, but in the private club world, it means there’s room to grow—not only in membership, but in value. We’re committed to enhancing that value through every initiative we take on. This includes plans to expand the fitness centre, elevate our dining and wellness offerings, and continue investing in member-focused improvements.
Let’s not forget, Terminal City Club was the original developer of the TC Tower. That vision built an asset we continue to manage and improve. It’s a legacy of smart growth we aim to carry forward with each project.
Another reminder of the Club’s value? Members benefit directly from the businesses we own—our parking lot, Mink, Lions Pub, and Call Me Back. These outlets are open to the public, but they exist to serve members first. Not only do you receive 10% off food and members receive free parking before 9am and after 4pm Monday to Friday and free on weekends, but their profits help subsidize the Club experience for all of us.
As for what’s next—our annual Summer Social returns later this month, details are on page 5. It’s our unofficial summer kickoff and always one of the Club’s most popular gatherings.
Lastly, we rely on our excellent members to help shape our future. If someone in your network would enjoy what we offer, send them to www.tcclub.com/joinus.
Here’s to a summer of ownership, connection, and continued momentum.
Warm regards,
John Mackenzie
President, Terminal City Club
