Ashland to offer community memberships to Recreation Center

Beginning this fall, Ashland's Recreation Center will offer a limited number of memberships to the community.

“Memberships will provide all of the amenities and services which were previously granted only to university-affiliated members,” Ashland Recreational Services Director Janel Molnar said. “We are excited to provide another opportunity to engage and interact with the Ashland community. This new initiative comes on the heels of the University’s new strategic plan, with Pillar 5 of that plan addressing enhanced community engagement.”

Community memberships are priced at $240 for individuals per semester and $600 per semester for family membership services.

“This community initiative is in addition to the number of programs and services that we continue to offer community members, including a winter youth indoor soccer league, summer youth camps, learn-to-swim, facility rentals, First Aid/CPR/AED certification as well as lifeguard certification and re-certification,” Molnar said. “We look forward to additional interactions with our community members and continuing to build our relationship with the larger Ashland community.”

The Recreation Center will be open from Aug. 22 to Dec. 19.
