Memberships & Facility Access
Mason Recreation’s programs, services, and facilities are an essential (and fun!) component of student and faculty/staff well-being. We are proud to share all that we offer with members of the Mason community.
Membership Sales
To purchase a membership in person, please arrive during one of our facility time blocks when we are “open” and not between a time block. These times can be viewed here. A facility reservation is not needed to visit the facilities to purchase a membership.
Several membership types for Mason affiliates are available to be purchased online (https://connect.recreation.gmu.edu) after logging in using NetID and password. See the table below for membership types denoted as online eligible. Returning members may renew their membership when their are 30 days or less remaining on their current membership using the “Membership Renewals” button. First-time Mason Rec members should use the “New Memberships” button.

| **Minor Membership Changes: As of July 2020, Mason Recreation made the decision to end sales of all Minor Memberships. We plan to reevaluate this change in the future, but for now our focus must be to work towards the safety and well-being of our students and Mason Community. Fortunately, we can ensure the ability for these individuals to participate in other programs/services that will empower their well-being, such as such as our Summer Camp, Swim Lessons, and more. |

Parking Permits
- Parking permits for non-Mason affiliated members will be sold directly through Mason Parking Services utilizing their online portal. Non-Mason affiliated members will receive login credentials by email for this portal 2-3 business days after their membership purchase. Through the portal non-Mason affiliated members can purchase a $15 printable parking permit which is valid for the duration of the current membership term.
- Mason students and faculty/staff must purchase parking permits through their normal University eligibility.
Payroll Deduction
- Payroll deduction memberships run continuously until cancelled by the account holder. The per paycheck deduction is calculated as the annual membership price/number of annual paychecks [e.g. $12.50/paycheck for employees paid semi-monthly ($300/24)]. Cancellations made within the first year of membership are subject to a $25 administrative fee (per membership). Cancellations made after the first year of membership are not subject to the fee. Enrollment for payroll deduction memberships is done directly through Mason Recreation Membership Services. E-mail all requests to the Membership Coordinator.
