Where do I get a membership to use the
recreational facilities?
If you're a full-fee-paying student (10 credits or
more), you are already a member. Present your MAVcard
at the Information Desk as you enter the Student Recreation
Center. Part-time students, faculty, staff, and dependants
may purchase full access semester long memberships. Alumni
and Maverick Club members may purchase limited (time) access
memberships. Members of the general public may purchase swim
pool memberships only.
How and where are memberships sold?
All memberships are sold on a semester or summer session basis.
All semester memberships are reduced by 50% shortly after
the midpoint of each semester. All memberships are sold at
the Information Desk.
My spouse or partner wants to join, too.
How is it done?
A primary member may purchase an adult dependant membership
at the Information Desk.
Do students get discount memberships
for their children?
Yes. Any student can bring their dependant children with them
at no additional charge. Access for children (under 18 years
of age) is limited to specific facilities and/or times and
must be in direct supervision by a parent at all times. Please
check with the Information Desk for specific information.
Children over the age of 18 must purchase a dependant's recreation
membership.
May I bring a guest?
Members may bring up to three guests per semester at no additional
charge. After that, the cost is $5.00 per guest per visit.
Guest passes can be purchased at the Information Desk.
Why do part time students (less than
10 credits) have to pay an additional fee to use the facilities?
The Student Recreation Center Policy Committee determined
a need for all students to pay full fees to use this student
fee funded facility. They thought it was not fair that a student
taking one credit not have to pay the same as a student taking
ten or more credits. This policy was established in May 1995,
prior to the opening of the facility. Part-time students only
pay the difference in the fees associated with the debt retirement
and the operation of the Student Recreation Center.
I'll be in Mesa County working this summer,
but I won't be a student until the fall semester. Can I use
the recreation center over the summer?
Students who are preregistered for fall semester may buy a
membership for the summer. These memberships are sold in a
way to accommodate students here for the whole summer whether
or not they are taking classes. Ask staff at the Information
Desk for more information.
Why do you require participants to show
their MAVcard when entering the Student Recreation Center?
Our staff, like any other private/public agency (health club,
library, etc.), wants to provide the very best services for
our students. This means that our staff needs to screen out
people who have not paid the necessary fees. If non-students
participate in intramural sports or use the facilities to
recreate, they are participating without having subsidized
the college in any way. If allowed to participate, these non?students
could be, taking the opportunity to participate away from
an eligible fee paying student. We have limited resources
and budgets that limit the number of recreational opportunities.
Where is the free parking for when I
come to workout at the Student Recreation Center?
Except during the summer months (mid-May through mid-August),
permit parking is enforced in Parking Lot G1. Please check
with Parking
Services (248-1919) for enforcement days/times. Street
parking along 12th Street and Orchard Avenue is available
at no charge.
On occasion I find that I cannot recreate
due to a special event, academic class, or athletic practice.
Why and how can I find out when these occur?
The recreational facilities at Mesa State College are designated
multiple use facilities in which occasional scheduling conflicts
occur necessitating adjustments in the regular schedule. All
schedule changes will be posted 48 hours in advance (whenever
possible) at the bulletin board closest to the entrance to
the Student Recreation Center. Call 248-1592 for the latest
information.
