Staying Healthy & Strong: Scheduled Winter Deep Cleans
With winter months bringing increased facility usage and seasonal cleaning requirements, we are launching a structured, rotating deep clean schedule. By dedicating specific, recurring windows to these intensive cleanings, we ensure our facilities remain in peak operational readiness while helping you easily plan your training schedule without unexpected interruptions. Rather than closing all sites at once, we are zoning these brief, periodic closures so that you always have an alternative workout facility available nearby.
Rotating Zone Closure Schedule
To help you seamlessly plan your training weeks, we have established a routine schedule for our three main facilities:
1st Wednesday of the Month
Elmendorf Fitness Center (EFC)
Open Alternatives: Buckner Fitness Center and Hangar 5
2nd Wednesday of the Month
Buckner Fitness Center (BFC)
Open Alternatives: Elmendorf Fitness Center and Hangar 5
3rd Wednesday of the Month
Hangar 5 (H5)
Open Alternatives: Buckner Fitness Center and Elmendorf Fitness Center
Plan Ahead: Double-check your training calendar on these specific Wednesdays so you can reroute your workout to one of our open facilities .
24/7 Access Reminder: If you plan to utilize Hangar 5 or the other centers during off-hours, make sure your CAC registration and 24/7 fitness access are fully up to date .
Thank you for your cooperation and flexibility as we keep our facilities clean, healthy, and mission-ready!
