Westmount Golf and Country Club

What Westmount Golf and Country Club does

Westmount Golf & Country Club Limited is a private, member-owned country club incorporated in Ontario, Canada and headquartered at 50 Inverness Drive, Kitchener. Founded in 1931 on a course designed by renowned Canadian architect Stanley Thompson, the club operates an 18-hole championship golf course, four Har-Tru clay tennis courts (with pickleball added in 2017), curling ice facilities, an on-site dining program, and a weddings/events venue (the Westmount Room & Terrace, accommodating up to 185 guests for dinner and 250 for receptions). It serves five primary customer segments — golf, tennis, curling, social, and event-host — with membership tiers ranging from intermediate to senior across golfing and social categories.

The club's technology stack is built on Jonas Club Software for member management, website login, and registration, supplemented by interactive digital 18-hole flyovers and a dedicated Golf Training Centre with PGA of Canada instructors, high-tech instruction tools, and custom club fitting. Operations are organized into functional directorates (Golf, Agronomy, Racquet Sports, Curling, Clubhouse Operations, Finance) led by General Manager Michael Hearse.

The business model is anchored on recurring annual membership dues with layered revenue streams: wedding and corporate event hosting fees, curling ice rental, golf shop merchandise sales, and year-round dining and social programming (bridge, brunch, cooking classes, live music). Membership pricing is not publicly disclosed and is delivered through a sales-led, personal-tour approach supported by member referrals, a fitting GTM motion for an exclusive, capacity-constrained private club with a documented historical waiting list and peak membership of 861 (1964).
