Hello Everyone,

There have been a number of inquiries about Harvard's decision to no longer offer memberships to Harvard recreation.

Below is the official announcement that was sent to Ed Portal recreation members in August.

Tony

Dear Ed Portal Recreation Member,

As we look ahead to the fall, we are expanding our recreation and wellness programming to include additional instructor-led yoga classes, notably advanced level yoga classes. The Ed Portal will also continue to offer free health and wellness opportunities including:

Continued access to Harvard Stadium & McCurdy outdoor track
Tickets to select Harvard sporting events

Please note that beginning September 1, the Ed Portal will no longer offer the option to purchase memberships to Harvard Recreation. With several new fitness facilities opening in Allston-Brighton over the past few years, the range of fitness and recreation offerings for residents has increased substantially. The Ed Portal's mission has always been to create programming and opportunities in response to community needs, and we look forward to creating complementary programs to enhance the options available in the neighborhood.

In the coming months, we will be adding additional health and wellness offerings that may include a running/walking group or workshops on health and wellness topics, so please visit our website regularly for programming updates.

Thank you for being a part of the Ed Portal community.

Sincerely,
The Ed Portal Team
