Ep. 55 Discrimination against Swingers Clubs
MARKHAM, Ill. — The mayor of Markham has been working to close some of the south suburb’s seedier spots, including an adult swingers club that has been around for more than three decades.
WGN Investigates previously reported how the mayor took the club, called Couples Choice, to court late last year and claimed it was operating as an illegal business.
Before the pandemic hit, the club may have closed but the parties didn’t stop.
And that’s causing more trouble in Markham.
“You know, there’s nothing wrong with what we do,” Couples Choice owner Tim Geary said. “Everyone enjoys themselves here. I don’t know what the problem Markham has with us.”
Geary said the club is now closed. His son, Cameron Geary, lives at the property, which has a dance floor and 18 bedrooms.
