Recreation Memberships: Payroll Deduction option and Earlybird Savings

Recreation Services has added two new payment options available for the next few weeks.

PAYROLL DEDUCTION: If you would like to have your gym fee membership deducted automatically from your paycheck at $7 a week, you may sign up for that now.  You’ll need to show your academic contract paperwork.

DISCOUNT: Before 9/17, get the Early Bird discount: if you can pay cash/check upfront save $10.00/semester.

This fall they have added personal training programs (extra fees apply for this) and expanded group exercise classes.  They have also opened additional tennis courts just south of the Recreation Center.

(After September 17, memberships prices will be prorated monthly.)

Go to umass.edu/campusrec or stop into the Recreation Center for complete info!
