Dear ESF Students,
Governor Andrew Cuomo’s decision to allow fitness centers to reopen paves the way for ESF students to have access to the recreation facilities in the Barnes Center at Syracuse University. Access will be permitted to students who can produce evidence of a negative COVID-19 test result. ESF leaders are currently confirming testing locations at Syracuse University where ESF students can obtain a COVID-19 test at no cost and if testing will be a one-time or repeated requirement. Details to secure a COVID-19 test will be communicated shortly.
In accordance with the Governor’s decision, to use the Barnes Center, students must wear masks at all times and sign-in to the facility to help contact tracers in case of a virus outbreak. The Barnes Center at Syracuse University offers cardio equipment, a weight room, climbing wall, esports, indoor track, personal training, a pool, challenge course, adventure trips, group in-person and virtual fitness programs, and ice skating pavilion. Many of the opportunities and services require reservations. For more information, visit https://ese.syr.edu/bewell/fall-2020/#s:recreation
Sincerely,
Office of Communications
