In an effort to keep you safe, Campus Recreation will be following all CDC, University, State, and City guidelines, which means a limit on the number of Ramblers in Halas at any given time.

In order to use Halas, you will need to register for a time to work out:

To reserve a time to work out, log into our Campus Rec Member Portal with your LUC UVID at https://campusrec.luc.edu/

Scroll down to select which area of Halas you would like to register for (Cardio Floor, Weight Room, Bouldering Wall).

Select the time you want.

Time slots open 24 hours in advance only.

Add that time slot to your cart and complete your 'purchase' (time slots are no charge). Please only reserve one time slot per day so your fellow Ramblers can also work out!

You will receive an email receipt with a calendar invite to add your time slot to your calendar.

Registrations open August 23rd, and our opening day is August 24th.

We hope to see you then!
