Due to the ongoing HVAC issue and elevated temperatures inside the facility, we are taking some additional precautions tomorrow to help protect the health and safety of our visitors, instructors and staff.

The following programs will be canceled Tuesday, Sept. 8:

* All Aerobics classes
* All SilverSneakers classes
* Playworld

The aerobics room is currently one of the warmest areas of the building, and we are being especially cautious with programs that serve older adults and young children.

We will continue to monitor temperatures throughout the facility tomorrow. Additional areas, including the fitness center, may need to close or operate on a modified schedule depending on conditions, particularly during the afternoon.

Our team is actively working on both temporary and permanent solutions to improve temperatures inside the facility. We appreciate your patience as we work through this unexpected issue.

Please check our social media channels for the latest updates before visiting the facility, or call 317-839-7665 with questions.

Thank you for your understanding as we put the health and safety of our patrons and staff first.

We are currently dealing with an unexpected issue with the building’s air conditioning system that is affecting temperatures throughout the facility. Our maintenance team is working directly with HVAC professionals to address the problem, and we are actively exploring every reasonable option to get the building back to comfortable operating temperatures as quickly as possible.

While we work through the issue, we encourage visitors to drink plenty of water, take more frequent breaks, and listen to your body during exercise or other physical activity.

We understand the timing is frustrating. It’s frustrating for us, too. We appreciate your patience while we work through this. We’ll continue to keep you informed as we have meaningful updates to share.

Thank you for sticking with us. We’re working to get the Carlucci Recreation Center back to the experience our members expect and deserve.

Thanks for your patience while we completed the installation of new fitness flooring. You’ll notice that some of your favorite equipment has been moved around a bit, but we wanted to make better use of the space, and we think you’re going to like the result.

We can’t wait to welcome you back to the fitness center tomorrow morning, beginning at 5:30 a.m.!

See you bright and early.
