📢 Rec Center Rental Information

The updated Rec Center Rental Agreement is now posted and available to view.

🔑 Reminder for renters:
Your rental key fob provides access to the gym only and does not include access to the weight room.

🏀 Rec Center Members:
When the Rec Center is rented, the gym will be closed for the entire day, as renters receive full-day access with their reservation.
➡️ Members will still have access to the weight room, but not the gym.

📅 You can view all scheduled rentals on the Rec Center Rental Google Calendar.

Thank you for your cooperation and for helping us keep the Rec Center running smoothly for everyone!
