For everyone looking to stay in shape over the summer, campus recreational services will remain open.

Registered University of Idaho students can use the facilities for free and do not have to be enrolled in summer classes.


Those who are not students can buy a pass from the Campus Recreation office in Memorial Gym, Room 204. Summer passes for the Swim Center are $40 and general summer recreation passes are $60.

Summer combo passes for both swimming and recreation are $70. Monthly, family and senior passes are also available.


Hours of operation are as follows:


Memorial Gym courts will be open from 7 a.m. until 8:45 p.m. weekdays; they will be open from noon until 8 p.m. weekends.


The Memorial Gym weight room will be open from 12:30 p.m. until 8 p.m. weekdays and noon until 8 p.m. weekends.


The Kibbie Dome will be open, but summer hours are yet to be determined for that facility.


The Physical Education Building will be open from 7 a.m. until 4 p.m. weekdays but closed weekends.
The Swim Center will be open for lap swimming from 6 a.m. to 7 a.m. and again at 11:45 a.m. to 1 p.m. weekdays and 6 p.m. to 6:50 p.m. Sunday.


Open swim hours, beginning June 11, will be from 3:30 p.m. to 4:45 p.m. and 7 p.m. to 8:15 p.m. The pool will be closed Saturdays.


The climbing center and rifle range will be available by appointment only. Call 885-6810 for the climbing center and 885-6381 for the rifle range.


These hours will be effective from May 21 to Aug. 26. All facilities will be closed May 26 through May 28 and July 4. The pool will close for its annual maintenance from July 27 to Aug. 26.


Campus Recreation will also be holding a series of barbecues during the summer months. Starting with a sirloin steak dinner June 19, the barbecues will be every Tuesday until July 24. The menu will be different each week with dishes including smoked sausage, barbecue chicken and salmon.


Tickets will cost between $4 and $5 depending on the food being served. Tickets must be purchased in advance at the Memorial Gym office in Room 204. Summer office hours are from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.


There are no intramural sports or sports clubs active during the summer months, but the Campus Recreation staff is available all summer to discuss suggestions for next falls clubs and leagues. They can be reached at 885-6381.
