Temporary Centre and gym closures for exciting improvements at ERC
We're making some required and exciting improvements to the Eaton Recreation Centre gym over the coming weeks, including the installation of new cardio equipment and upgrades to our electrical and access systems.
To complete these works safely, some temporary closures will be required.
Tuesday, 22 September: Entire centre closed 4am to 9am
The entire centre will be closed while electrical works are undertaken as part of the gym upgrade project with power shut off during this period.
Group fitness classes will operate as normal from 9am and creche will open from 9am.
Thursday, 24 September: Gym closed from 4am reopening 6pm
Electrical works and gym layout improvements will be completed in preparation for the arrival of new equipment. Keep an eye on our Facebook page where we will post if works are completed ahead of schedule or delayed for gym access.
We encourage members to join a group fitness class, with Body pump, core and stretch and mobility on offer to get your exercise fix for the day!
Wednesday, 30 September to Thursday, 1 October: Gym closed from 6am Wednesday reopening 5.30am Thursday
This closure will allow for:
- Removal of existing cardio equipment.
- Installation of new cardio equipment.
- Gym floor layout improvements.
- Access system upgrades and access door changes.
Why not try out Body Step or Yoga in the main Group Fitness Studio. RPM will not run this day.
The gym is scheduled to reopen from 5.30am on Thursday, 1 October.
We appreciate your patience as we invest in an even better experience for our members.
