For many WSU Pullman community members, working out at a campus recreation center is an essential part of daily life. So when COVID-19 forced gyms and fitness facilities to temporarily close last March, the loss was felt acutely among students, faculty, and staff alike.
Recognizing the importance of fitness to the campus community, University Recreation staff got to work on making campus recreation COVID safe.
Staff began offering free online classes within a week of facilities closing so community members could exercise from their own homes. They familiarized themselves with state and campus COVID protocols. And they spent several weeks moving equipment, installing sanitizing and temperature check stations, installing signage on mask-wearing policies, and developing an online reservation system to accommodate new facility capacity limits.
