SEFC CLOSED BEGINNING 12/16/20

In an effort to reduce the further spread of COVID-19 and its impact on Boston's health care system and essential services, Mayor Martin J. Walsh announced on Monday, December 14th that the City of Boston will return to a modified Phase Two, Step Two of the Reopening Massachusetts Plan on Wednesday, December 16th. Per the order, indoor fitness centers, health clubs, and recreational and athletic facilities, like the SEFC, must close through at least 1/27/21 weeks beginning on Wednesday, December 16th. For more information, please visit the City of Boston website.

Please look out for additional updates via email and the SEFC webpage.

As of Monday, August 17, the gym has resumed normal hours (see below).

We are following the state's Workplace Safety Standards, which means that members:

• Cannot use showers, except to rinse off before using the pool
  

• Must wear face coverings at all times, except where unsafe due to medical condition or disability
  

1. Have their membership extended for the number of weeks that the gym was closed. For example: The gym is closed for 3 weeks. Your membership expires on May 31. With this option, we would extend your membership until June 21.
   
   
2. Request a reimbursement for the number of weeks that the gym was closed
