Mind, Body, and Spirit - The RecPlex
The Leslie C. Quick Jr. Recreation Complex is re-opening Saturday, November 21, 2020, to on-campus students, faculty, and staff with a 2019-2020 membership.
*The pool, hot tub, showers, locker rooms, field house, lower level fitness and multi-purpose rooms are closed until further notice. Towel service, yoga mats, guest passes, and equipment rentals will not be available.
All members must have a Stag Card and a face covering. Face coverings must be worn at all times while in the RecPlex. The hot tub, water fountains, towel service, yoga mats, guest passes, and equipment rentals will not be available until further notice.
Whether you are an occasional or passionate athlete, the state-of-the-art Fairfield RecPlex will have what our students are looking for in a modern, spacious setting. Our students’ lives outside the classroom matter to us because their well-being is the foundation for a rewarding life and an important part of Fairfield’s future legacy.
The moment you step inside, you will know this is a new and special place. From an indoor track and large cardio training suite to ample rooms for classes, and meeting spaces the new-and-improved RecPlex is a great place for students, faculty, staff, administrators, alumni and friends.
