Keep in Mind: The Belle Terre Swim & Racquet Club is open, welcoming and taking new memberships, and if you enroll before Sept. 1, you’ll beat the price increase kicking in then. Experience the many amenities including a lap pool, wading pool, tennis/pickleball courts, sauna, and a modern wellness center–all for less than what you’d pay just for a fitness center at your typical commercial gym. Friendly staff is available to answer any questions you may have about becoming a member. Belle Terre Swim and Racquet Club is the sort of place where you can connect with fellow community members and experience the welcoming atmosphere that sets BTSRC apart. If you have any questions, feel free to call at 386-446-6717. If you would like to learn more about our club and membership options please visit online.

Mr. Jimmerson looked on the separation as a temporary one, he having read in a newspaper article that women in mid-life often pulled such stunts as this. They became unbalanced from some female condition called “menopause” and took up such things as painting, spelling reform and politics. The condition soon passed and they came around. But Fanny didn’t come around and she didn’t come back, except for brief visits. Short time the household staff was gone too. Mr. Jimmerson couldn’t remember to pay them and they drifted off one by one.
–From Charles Portis’s Masters of Atlantis (1985).
