Wellness Center features include an indoor running/walking track; three courts for playing basketball, volleyball or other games; indoor swimming pool; fitness classes; fitness room with cardio and weight equipment; climbing wall for rock climbing and bouldering; and four racquetball courts.
Membership rates are $42 monthly for an individual, $60 monthly for an adult couple and $69 monthly for a family with discounted rates for SBU alumni and anyone over the age of 65. Members who pay annually receive two months free.
