Accessible Recreation
The SSU Campus Recreation Center is committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive environment that promotes the right of
every person to lead a healthy, balanced life. We encourage people of all abilities to participate in any programs and services
offered. We provide a variety of accommodations and appreciate any comments or suggestions to improve your experience.
Facility Access
The Recreation Center has an automatic door at the main entrance for all participants. Simply hand your SSU ID card to the front desk
to swipe for entrance into our facility. The Recreation Center is happy to provide complimentary access to an aide or interpreter if the
student or Recreation Center member wants to participate in activities during open recreation but needs accommodations. The aide or
interpreter first needs to obtain a Recreation Center Drop-In Pass ($9. Access can then be granted at the Recreation Center. Please
visit the Front Desk to obtain access or to answer any further questions.
