Dear UNT Health Faculty, Staff, Community Members and Students,
The Fitness Center in the Founders’ Activity Center will reopen at 9 a.m. Saturday, May 30. It has been determined that the facility is safe following the small fire that occurred Thursday.
The women’s locker room will remain temporarily closed due to damage caused by the fire.
A single-stall restroom on the second floor of the Fitness Center will be available for member use. Members can access the restroom from the stairwell across from the Mindful Corner and next to the Cardio Room.
Information about construction plans and any future intermittent closures will be shared through Daily News and with Fitness Center members through the DSE Rec communication platform.
Thank you for your understanding.

UNT Health Faculty, Staff, Community, and Students,
A small fire occurred today in the Founder's Activity Center. The building was evacuated and Fort Worth Fire responded and determined that the source of the fire was caused by an exhaust fan in the women's locker room. No injuries were reported but repairs will need to be made. The FAC will remain closed until further notice while the damage is remediated and we ensure it is safe for occupancy.
We will continue to provide updates as more information becomes available, including when the building is expected to reopen.
Thank you for your understanding.
