Summer exercise and recreation opportunities and policies have been announced by the recreational sports department.

- Spouses, qualified domestic partners and dependents are required to go to the ID office in the east balcony of the Terrace Dining Hall and get a Fitness Center picture identification card. Please bring a form of picture identification. The ID office hours are 8:30 am-4:00 pm, but please call them (274-3007) to confirm that someone is there before you go.
- There is no charge for use of the Fitness Center, outdoor pool, or the ID cards. Cards issued in previous years for the Fitness Center may be used as long as the card holder is still benefits-eligible.
- Beginning May 19 through August 15, faculty, staff, and their eligible dependents may bring a guest and purchase a day guest pass. The guest must be at least 16 years old. The cost is $5 cash or check. The sponsor of the guest must accompany the guest during their visit.

To use the Ithaca College outdoor pool, dependents 16 years of age and older, spouses, and qualified domestic partners must use their Fitness Center picture ID card.
Dependents under age 16, or spouses and domestic partners choosing not to use the Fitness Center, must have a pool identification card. This card is issued at the outdoor pool before the first use of the pool. A membership form must be completed by the Ithaca College employee before a pool card will be issued to the spouse or qualified domestic partner and each dependent.
The outdoor pool opens on Saturday, May 31, and closes Monday, September 1. The hours are Monday-Friday, noon-7:00 pm; Saturday, noon- 6:00 pm; Sunday, 1:00-7:00 pm.
