Welcome
Welcome to Campus!
It is so nice to meet you! (Well, figuratively, since we are talking to you through a page on our website…but still). We are Campus Recreation, a department within the Division of Student Affairs with a passion for health and wellness. It is our mission to support your recreation and wellbeing endeavors and goals throughout your time here at CSU (and maybe even beyond)! We have a variety of programs and services set up to do just that. Welcome to the Rec’ing Ram fam. We think you’ll really love it.
Rec Center Hours
Building hours are adjusted for University holidays, special events, maintenance closures, fall, winter, spring, and summer breaks. Unscheduled building closures will be communicated via Instagram (@csurec), through our app, and here on our website.
Memberships
Are you a full-time student (currently enrolled in six or more on-campus credits)? If the answer is yes, then congrats, you are a Campus Recreation member! Simply come to the Student Recreation Center with your CSU ID and swipe yourself in, that’s it!
Campus Recreation should be a space for everyone, and it takes the entire community to help achieve that goal. So how do #WeREC? We REC by Respecting each other’s identities and boundaries, Empowering ourselves and our friends to always contribute positively to this community, and by always Caring about the health and well being of every Ram.
Gym-timidation
Worried about working out? Unsure about what to do or concerned about feeling awkward? Gym-timidation is real and we are here to help you through it. At Campus Recreation we are serious about our goal to make sure the Student Recreation Center is a great place on campus for every single Ram, no matter your body type, athletic ability, or past fitness experience. Come by and take a tour with one of our knowledgeable student staff members, watch our workout videos on YouTube, and don’t be afraid to ask our staff questions. We’ve all been new to something before, and we promise you’ll be happy you took the leap.
Programs
Intramural Sports
Do you have a competitive fire that’s roaring for more fuel? Our Intramural Sports Program offers leagues and tournaments each semester! Different divisions (women’s, men’s, coed, or open) are offered depending on the sport and some sports offer both recreational and competitive leagues.
Fitness
The Fitness Program is your place to go to feel strong and capable in your amazing body! From new friends in Group and Yoga classes to a knowledgeable and encouraging Personal Trainer, you are sure to find a workout sidekick. Want to learn a new skill or continue practicing a passion?

Sport Clubs
Take the competition to the next level by joining a sport club, which are student-managed teams that train together, travel, and compete on a national level. Sport Club students are serious athletes and games/matches are held throughout the state and country. Our teams are kind of a big deal, too, raking in over 30 national championships! Way to be, Rams!
