2018/19 Community Membership

Membership Dates from September 4, 2018 – May 24, 2019 (Labor Day – Memorial Day)

• Hours for community use: Building hours for community use are Monday – Friday, 5 a.m. to 3 p.m.  New in 2018, the building will be open on Sundays for community use from 1 p.m. – 5 p.m.

• Membership model:
  • Individual Maple Leaf Pass – Includes access to the RFC during community hours for the pass holder and one guest (primary pass holder must be present when guest passes are used) for a year. In addition, the pass holder will receive two GC all-sports passes good for admission to all GC athletic events.
  • Cost: $200 (more than a 75% savings)

• Lockers and locker room use: There are no permanent lockers available for community use. During community hours, the locker rooms and showers may be used by community members, and you may bring a lock with you to store clothes in temporary lockers.

• Day passes and punch pass sales: During community hours, there are no day pass or punch pass sales.

We understand that our hours will not adequately meet all of our current community member’s recreation and fitness needs. For those who would like to transition their membership to a different fitness facility the contact information for 3 other fitness clubs in town are below.

Facilities

The Roman Gingerich Recreation-Fitness Center (RFC) offers state-of-the-art facilities:

• Three full-size basketball and multipurpose courts
• 200-meter running track
• 2,800-square-foot weight room
• Four racquetball courts
• Exercise machines (steppers, exercise bikes, rowers and elliptical machines)
• Large training room and exercise science lab

Adjacent to the RFC are lighted tennis courts, soccer fields, baseball and softball fields, and the 400-meter Eigsti Track and Field Complex.

The RFC is also home to:

• Goshen College intercollegiate athletics (GoLeafs.net)
• Intramural athletics
• The Kinesiology Department (including the physical education major and exercise science major)

Availability

Some areas of the RFC may be closed for Goshen College athletics (home games, team practices, etc.) at certain times, so it’s a good idea to call ahead to check. Click this link to see the home basketball schedule.

• The Crossroads League Conference that Goshen College Athletics compete in is beginning a move to basketball games being played as double headers with the Women’s and Men’s games played back to back.

• The conference also mandates we offer locker rooms for each team from 1.5 hours before the game until 1 hour afterwards that are to be locked and secured for each team. Please be aware that this may result in all of our locker rooms being used and unavailable at times on game days/nights.

• The track and gym will also be closed during these times.
