City of Prince Rupert to reopen Fitness Centre at Earl Mah Aquatic Centre

The City of Prince Rupert will be reopening the Fitness Gym located
in the Earl Mah Aquatic Centre next week on an appointment only basis

Prince Rupert residents will soon be able to work out again at the civic run Fitness Centre, with the city's Recreation Department announcing that the facility located on the mezzanine of the Earl Mah Aquatic Centre will be made available on an appointment basis.

The Fitness Gym reopens August 4th, though with a few new regulations in place:

Only three people will be allowed in the fitness area at a time

No Drop in Use - by appointment only

One hour bookings per appointment, with equipment to be disinfected in between bookings.

As they re-open the Fitness Centre it will be with limited hours to start, Open Monday to Friday, staring at 8:30 to 5:15 PM each day.

To make an appointment to register for a time call the Recreation Centre at 250-624-6707

Wednesday's announcement, which you can review here, did not mention any progress towards reopening the larger Jim Ciccone Civic Centre or when the Earl Mah Aquatic Centre may be reopened for use.

The timeline for the city's recreation facilities has on occasion be a theme at Prince Rupert City Council, but has not been discussed by the city's councillors in recent sessions.

You can review those topics that have been explored from our Council archive page here.
