Hi all, As you may have heard, the MAC will be closing for construction in the new year. The statement below has been issued by the athletic department, and I wanted to forward it on to you all. "The Department of Athletics, The College and FAS Physical Resources, are actively planning for the relocation of programs which will be impacted by the scheduled March 19, 2007 closing of the Malkin Athletic Center through the end of October 2007. Activities currently scheduled in the MAC gymnasium will move to Lavietes Pavillion, QRAC and Hemenway Gymnasium. Pool activity will move to Blodgett Pool with expanded hours. Exercise equipment will potentially move to a combination of QRAC, house gyms, yard spaces and athletic facilities at Soldiers Field. Club and Intramural activities will be accommodated at a combination of QRAC, Soldiers Field athletic fields and facilities and activity space at Hilles. We appreciate users flexibility with respect to time specific space and walking distance, and expect to be able to maintain a broad range of recreational programming throughout the renovation. More detailed information will be posted at the MAC and on the Athletics Department website (www.gocrimson.com) as it becomes available." As always, please feel free to contact me with questions, comments, and concerns. Thanks, Jana -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jana Micomonaco Malkin Athletic Center Harvard Athletics 617/495-4838 macinfo(a)fas.harvard.edu
