Story
Campus Recreation provides a variety of services and programs to benefit the entire Boise State community. The department is housed in the Student Recreation Center. In the broadest of terms, we facilitate informal recreation, intramural sports, club sports, fitness programs, outdoor educational programs, an outdoor rental shop, a climbing gym, massage therapy, an athletic training clinic, personal training and fitness assessments, and development of students through employment and leadership opportunities. We educate all of our patrons students, faculty, staff, and alumni alike, in developing lifelong healthy
habits.
The Student Recreation Center itself is an 86,000-square-foot facility offering all the basics available in any fitness center. The Fitness Program includes 45-50 regular drop-in group exercise classes and nutrition consultation, workshops and seminars for improving your health, as well as workout incentives. The Group Exercise and Instructional Programs are perfect for those of you who like the group environment.
The group atmosphere can really help to keep you motivated and on track. Personal Training is a great way to get you started, get you focused, or give your workout a boost. Utilize our Testing and Training programs when you need a little push or want to refocus your efforts. The Outdoor Program manages one of the largest collegiate climbing gyms in the country, runs a four-season rental shop, and provides trips and seminars throughout southwest Idaho and beyond. Join their human-powered adventure activities for an adventure, to learn a new skill, meet new friends and explore this lovely state of ours. This summer the Outdoor Program is offering a 5-day Wilderness Quest for incoming first year students. Wilderness Quest, a 5-day trip, is structured to help first year students get involved with campus programs, build community and have fun. Wilderness Quest sets the tone for future success at Boise State University. We are also offering an opportunity for all students to purchase a 2009-2010 season pass to their activities. Of course, what is Campus Recreation without an extensive Intramural and Club Sports programs, to provide athletic competition for all skill levels? The Intramural Sports Program provides the campus community with the opportunity to participate in various sports. The aim is to do so in a fun and friendly environment.
Each semester 10-12 individual and team sports are offered. They range from racquetball, tennis, badminton, and golf to volleyball, basketball, flag football and dodgeball. The Club Sports Program is designed to serve the individual or groups of students who share a common interest in sports. Depending on the sport, there is an opportunity for an instructional and/or competitive experience against other universities and clubs.
Beyond the doors of the Recreation Center, available facilities include a swimming pool, recreation field and tennis courts. Two major services we offer to patrons are Rec Response, our FREE athletic training clinic and Massage Therapy. The benefits of a healthy active lifestyle are immeasurable, so come to the Student Recreation Center and see all that Campus Recreation has to offer.
