Did you make a resolution to get fit or become healthier this year? How about getting into shape before Spring Break?

If one of those sounds familiar, the The Alan J. Stone Center for Recreation at Alma College can help you reach your goals!

Whether you want to join a group fitness class, set your own pace on the indoor track, get your heart pumping on a cardio machine, pump iron, play a game of basketball (or volleyball or tennis or floor hockey), or play an intramural sport, we’ve got something for you.

The Climbing Wall has reopened! See the Facility page for hours and information.

Students, faculty and staff may use the center with their Alma College ID cards. Community members may purchase memberships to the Stone Center, which include pool privileges at the Hogan Center.

Alma College’s sports teams have been known as the “Scots” since 1931 when Alma students voted on the name. Soon thereafter, “Scotty” emerged as Alma’s official mascot and is regularly seen on campus, in the community and at athletics events.
