Saint Mary's Fitness Center says it will permanently close its business at the end of this month.
Saint Mary’s announced the Feb. 28th closure in a letter on Wednesday "after exhausting all options to remain operable."
“The closing of the Fitness Center is difficult for members and staff alike,” wrote Executive Director Christina Ghiggeri, adding, “we understand that this update might be upsetting and apologize for any inconvenience. It is not representative of the operational stability of Saint Mary’s Medical Group or Saint Mary’s Regional Medical Center, which continue to grow and expand in 2023.”
The gym is located on the hospital grounds at 645 North Arlington Avenue near downtown Reno.
A Saint Mary's spokesperson said in a statement after announcing the closure that it is "not a reflection of the growth and success happening in other areas of Saint Mary's Health Network, including our 24 hour Emergency Department and certified Stroke Center, nationally recognized Cardiology care, Oncology, Pulmonology, Surgery, and Behavioral Health services."
As for affected members, Saint Mary’s says:
