Athletics and Recreation

Fitness & Recreation

The Fitness and Recreation Facilities provide many amenities that students, faculty and staff can access for open recreation or to improve their physical fitness levels.  Burn some calories at our Beacon Fitness Center, swim some laps at the Clark Athletic Center swimming pool, or join a game of pick-up basketball.  Seasonally we also have open skate times (September to March) and Waterfront Recreation, which includes Sailing and Kayaking (May through September).  Click each area on the left for open hours, classes, services, and more information.
