Facilities

There are accessible stalls in restrooms on each floor of the facility. Both men’s and women’s locker rooms have accessible changing areas, showers, and lockers available for rent each semester and during the summer. We also have one private changing room on the south end of the locker rooms with a private toilet, shower, changing area as well as two lockers for day use only.

The weight rooms and cardio rooms have wide doors and wide aisles to make the areas ADA accessible. There is a variety of strength, fitness, and cardio equipment that is designed to be adaptable. To learn how to use specific equipment please see a Strength & Cardio Attendant at the desk in front of the weight room.

Both the pool and hot tub have chairlifts that are ADA compliant. They can be operated by the user or if desired, with the help of the lifeguard on duty. Please don’t hesitate to ask for assistance.

Facility Access

The Fitness, Wellness, and Recreation Department is happy to provide a complimentary pass to a personal aide or interpreter if the member wants to participate in activities during open recreation but needs a personal aide to provide accessibility. The aide or interpreter first needs to complete the Eccles Health, Wellness, and Athletic Center paperwork. The guest fee may be waived to allow the aide or interpreter to accompany an individual in the Center.
