Community Engagement

At Campus Recreation, we believe that a healthy lifestyle includes more than just physical activity—it also means connecting with others, having fun, and building a sense of belonging. Our Community Engagement initiative is designed to support the social growth of the USD campus by offering inclusive, fun, and low-barrier opportunities to engage with others outside the classroom.

Come for the connection. Stay for the community. The goal is FUN—because fun is wellness, too!

Private Group Workshops/Classes

Is your organization, department or group interested in something specific? Let Campus Recreation help your group bond and have fun all while focusing on wellness! We can work with you to plan your next group's activity such as CPR Certification, nutrition 101, ballroom dance, or self defense. We provide the space (if available), instructor, and class supplies and you just need to bring the group!
