To our Mason Recreation Members & Guests,

As we continue to work on our plan for a safe return to campus, and the reopening of our facilities, our focus is to provide the safest environment possible for the well-being of our members for future participation and use of our facilities, programs, and services. To assist us in meeting your needs, we have created a survey to allow for feedback to help guide us in our actions.

Please rest assured knowing that every member of the Mason Recreation team is working diligently to secure a safe environment for our members, guests, and the Mason Community in preparation for a return to campus.

We are staying in line with the guidelines and best practices that are set forth from the American College Health Association, NIRSA: Leaders in Collegiate Recreation Association, and George Mason University in determining a re-open date for our Recreation facilities. Given this guidance, we anticipate that the re-open date for our facilities may be later then the Virginia Governor’s plan for corporate, municipal, and additional fitness facilities.
