The Meyer Center to temporarily close; space to be utilized for students

Unprecedented times call for unprecedented actions. In line with this reality, The Meyer Center, part of CoxHealth Fitness Centers, will temporarily close after business on Wednesday, Aug. 12, so the facility may be repurposed as an educational center for employees’ children. Memberships and operations at other CoxHealth Fitness Centers remain unchanged at this time.

Given that it is unknown when the center will reopen as a fitness facility, all memberships will be automatically canceled effective the closing date, and balances will be refunded in the next six to eight weeks, or another fitness alternative site will be identified that members may utilize. More information will be communicated to members in the coming days.

If Meyer members are using CoxHealth’s locations at Cox North or in Republic, they may send an email to coxfitnesscenters@coxhealth.com to transfer their membership to that location as these centers will remain open at this time. Members seeking additional information about the fitness center’s closing are also encouraged to send questions to coxfitnesscenters@coxhealth.com.

A letter will be sent to members’ homes with additional information and frequently asked questions (FAQs) related to this temporary closing.  

We thank our members for their understanding during this time.
