The Gold's Gym at 1019 W. University Ave., Ste. 100, Georgetown has permanently closed.

"As our global community continues to navigate the impact of Covid-19, today this includes sharing the news that we have made the difficult decision to permanently close about 30 company-owned gyms across the United States, including this location," an April 15 Facebook post said.

Members will be emailed with updates on what the closing means for memberships, pre-paid dues and services.

"This includes seamlessly transferring your membership to another nearby Gold's Gym location where possible," the post said.

The Gold's Gym brand has been in business for more than 50 years and has about 700 gyms in 29 countries worldwide. www.goldsgym.com
