Rec Sports Holiday Hours
Work off those holiday sweets by visiting your favorite Rec Sports facility over the holidays. View our special hours, holiday closings, and family hours by visiting http://go.osu.edu/winterbreak.
Snow Day Camp
Winter is here! And with winter, comes snow—and school closings. Community Programs offers Snow Day Camp for children enrolled in kindergarten through age 12 when Columbus Public Schools close because of the weather and Ohio State remains open. Campers will enjoy sports, crafts, and games from 8:30 a.m. – 5 p.m. A $10 non-refundable fee reserves your camper. Cost is $31 for members, per child, per day, and $38 for non-members, per child, per day. Visit http://www.recsports.osu.edu/community-programs/youth-family-programs/snow-day-camp for more information.
Upcoming Personal Training Certification Course
The winter World Instructor Training Schools (WITS) course is full. The next certification course to become a personal trainer will begin on Sunday, March 26, at 9 a.m. in the RPAC. Registration will open Friday, February 4. Call John Katsares at (614) 292-5153 or e-mail katsares.1@osu.edu for more details.
RPAC Locker Lottery Update
A locker lottery system is currently in place for those wishing to reserve a locker in the men's or women's locker rooms. Current locker holders do not need to participate in the locker lottery unless they wish to upgrade or downgrade their locker size. Any active member may submit their name during the times listed below by visiting www.recsports.osu.edu. Each member chosen for a locker will have one week to claim and pay for their locker at the RPAC Sport Shop. After this time, all remaining lockers will be available for rent on a first-come, first-serve basis. Current locker holders are not impacted by this change.
