The Recreational Sports Board has not officially met this year. We tried to hold one meeting but we failed to meet Quorum. I believe that a sub-committee met this week to review the Recreational Sports budget for the year. We should be reviewing that material at our next Recreational Sports Board meeting.
The Director of Rec Sports has indicated that they continue to explore renovation/expansion options. The SERF, NAT, and Shell are all on the older side and they get many complaints about the setup ie the SERF is like a dungeon is the most common complaint. The tentative plan is to renovate the NAT and then the SERF. In regards to the Shell they are looking at some sort of partnership with Athletics but that is unclear at this point. We should be getting a presentation detailing plans for expansion/renovation. I know they are planning on adding more exterior glass to give the building more of an outdoor feel and more effectively utilize sunlight.
Rec Sports understands that this must be done with student money and the Union is already undergoing a renovation/expansion so they are trying to be mindful of the situation with regards to student seg fees. I believe they are exploring the option of looking for some private money to help fund the operation. All of these matters should be addressed at our next meeting. There might be some information I forgot so other Rec Sports Board members should feel free to post any additional information. I thought it would be in the best interest of Shared Governance to get at least some information online. Please excuse any typos.
