Sport and Recreation Fees
by Susan Carvell 30 Jul '20

30 Jul '20

[cid:image002.jpg@01D531AE.174C13F0] Dear Students, The Faculty of Kinesiology and Recreation Management (FKRM) has been actively working with UM's COVID-19 Recovery Working Group on a phased approach to re-opening sport and recreation facilities at both the Fort Garry and Bannatyne campuses. As such, the Sport and Rec Fee will be applied to all UM students' tuition at a reduced rate for the Fall Term. The rate, 70 per cent of the standard Sport and Rec Fee, will be assessed at $62.92 for full-time students and $47.18 for part-time students. The partial assessment of the Sport and Rec Fee enables UM sport and recreation facilities and services to operate and safely support students through access to facilities and programming (on-site and online) that contribute to physical health, mental wellbeing and student success. At present, the Active Living Centre at the Fort Garry campus, including group fitness class offerings, are operational at reduced capacity with changes to processes to ensure government, health and UM regulations related to COVID-19 are met. * All users are being asked to complete a waiver, provided by email from Recreation Services, before they can access the facilities and make bookings. [*] Changes to booking procedures are highlighted on the Recreation Services website<http://umanitoba.ca/community/sport-recreation/recreation-services/membersh…> * Locker/change rooms on the main floor, adjacent to the Active Living Centre, are open for day-use, however, showers are not available. * Single-stall gender-inclusive washrooms, located on every floor of the Active Living Centre, are open and available for use. While the Frank Kennedy Centre, including gyms, studios, courts, the community change room, and the Joyce Fromson Pool remain closed, feasibility to re-open those areas in alignment with health regulations will continue to be evaluated. An announcement about the re-opening of the Joe Doupe Recreation Centre at the Bannatyne campus is forthcoming. Please visit the Recreation Services website<http://umanitoba.ca/community/sport-recreation/recreation-services/membersh…> for more information about changes and updates. Statement of inclusion: At the University of Manitoba, we are committed to equity of access and opportunity for all members, UM students, faculty and staff. We welcome you to a diverse and inclusive environment where everyone-from all backgrounds and perspectives-is respected, valued, and can enjoy an exceptional experience.

ALC to re-open Monday, July 27
by Rec Services 21 Jul '20

21 Jul '20

The Active Living Centre is re-opening Monday, July 27. The opening of the Active Living Centre is an important step in the process to recovery and re-opening at UM as its function supports our commitment to active living and the wellness of our entire community. Ordinarily UM students pay the Sport and Rec Fee<http://umanitoba.ca/registrar/tuition-fees> as a part of tuition costs to access Sport and Recreation Facilities<http://umanitoba.ca/community/sport-recreation/sport-and-recreation-facilit…>. This fee was not applied for Summer Term. As the Active Living Centre closed its doors on March 13, a month before the end of Winter Term, UM students who were enrolled in Winter Term 2020 will be able to re-activate their student membership to use the Active Living Centre for the remainder of the summer, honouring the fee they had paid for Winter Term. Students should watch for a follow up email from Recreation Services in the coming week with details on how to re-activate their student membership. To ensure the health and safety of everyone and in order to meet, and exceed government regulations, important changes to operations have been made: * Hours of operation will be Monday through Sunday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. * To ensure physical distancing, there will be a 100-member capacity in the facility at any one time. This represents approximately 25 per cent of the Active Living Centre’s capacity. * Members will book 90-minute workout blocks to guarantee a workout time. Booking details to come. * Thorough facility cleaning and sanitization will occur in-between blocks. Hand sanitizer will be available at the entrance, at the exit and throughout the facility. Participants will be asked to apply hand sanitizer immediately after entry and upon leaving the facilities. * Water fountains will be turned off (please bring your own water or sports drinks). * Group fitness classes will also be offered, but on a reduced basis. Before entering the facility, staff and participants must use the self-screening tool<https://sharedhealthmb.ca/covid19/screening-tool/>. Entry will not be allowed entry if anyone presents with COVID-19 symptoms. The Recreation Services website<http://umanitoba.ca/community/sport-recreation/recreation-services/membersh…> outlines the details of the re-opening and everything you will need to know before returning, in addition to information about membership and changes to services. Some of those changes include: * Suspension of towel service * The Joyce Fromson Pool, showers and sauna will remain closed * The gymnasiums and courts will remain closed * Due to COVID-19 procedures at the Bannatyne campus, Joe Doupe Recreation Centre will not be re-opening at this time. The UM Recreation Services team is excited to be able to open the doors and begin moving forward in supporting the fitness goals of the UM community and membership. “We thank you for your patience as we continue to work toward a strategic and safe re-opening,” said Tanya Angus, Director, Recreation Services. “We look forward to welcoming you back.” Follow Recreation Services on social media (Facebook<https://www.facebook.com/UofMRecreationServices>, Instagram<https://www.instagram.com/uofmrecservices/>) for more news and updates. Sincerely, Recreation Services

Fort Garry Campus Student Locker Access Available July 20-24
by Marcia Davies 09 Jul '20

09 Jul '20

[cid:image002.jpg@01D531AE.174C13F0] Good afternoon Students. In March, we made the difficult decision to close the campus as part of the community effort to slow the spread of COVID-19. This decision was made within a tight timeframe, and many of you were unable to retrieve personal belongings from your locker. To support you in collecting any needed personal items, the Fort Garry campus will be hosting a locker clean-out week from Monday, July 20th until Friday, July 24th from 9:00am until 4:00pm. As noted below, each day of the week a specific zone of the campus will be opened to allow students within that zone to retrieve their belongings and clean out their lockers. No registration is required. All students participating in this clean-out exercise must adhere to the following safety precautions: q While not mandatory, you are encouraged to wear a mask while visiting campus. q If you have returned from international or domestic travel in the last 14 days or have cold or flu-like symptoms (cough, fever, runny nose, sore throat, headache, etc.) you are not permitted to participate. q A designated free parking lot and check-in station for each zone has been established and must be used while visiting. Consult the table below to identify your zone, parking lot, and check-in station. q All other entrances to buildings will be locked and inaccessible and all other parking lots will operate under normal ticketing rules. q While outside and inside, you must make every effort to ensure a 2 metre distance between you and others. Thank you in advance for your support. All my best. …Laurie Laurie M.
