SFC Aquatics Closure

The Sport & Fitness Center (828 S. Wolcott) pool area will be closed from Saturday, November 16, 2024, through Sunday, December 15, 2024, for essential renovations. This includes upgrades to our filtration system, and the closure will extend to the entire aquatics area, including the sauna.

As part of our commitment to sustainability and efficiency, we are replacing the current sand filtration system with a state-of-the-art Defender regenerative media filter. This advanced filtration technology not only enhances water quality but also significantly reduces water and energy consumption, supporting our long-term sustainability goals and lowering the operational costs of our aquatics facility.

We aim to complete the renovations within the scheduled timeframe; however, if unexpected delays occur, we will promptly update this page with new information.

During the closure, patrons are encouraged to use the pool at our Student Recreation Facility (737 S. Halsted). We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to make these sustainable improvements for an enhanced aquatic experience.

Thank you for your continued support of Recreation and Wellbeing.
