I just got notice from the Washington Sports Club that they will be increasing my monthly rate by $10. Was just wondering what others are paying, particularly if you signed up at the Columbia Heights location, when I see them advertising $50 monthly rates to new members? I am not ok with paying 70-80% more than new members, and don’t even get me started on that BS “annual fee”….”
