June Is Equity, Diversity and Inclusion awareness month! Celebrate Diversity: World Cup Lunch Viewing Party

HR Health, Disability & Wellness is partnering with Cascades Athletics & Campus Recreation to bring employees and students together to celebrate teamwork, diversity, and a shared love of sport.

Join us for an exciting World Cup match experience while we watch all the action unfold on the Big Screen in the South Gym, where the energy, atmosphere, and sense of community will make every moment unforgettable!

Time: Lunchtime - Kick off at 12PM

It’s an exciting time in Building E — Convocation is here! 🎓

As we prepare for one of the most important events of the year, there will be a number of facility closures and schedule changes to be aware of.

Please plan accordingly if you need to get your daily movement in.

A huge shoutout to everyone crossing the stage — congratulations! You did it! 👏👏👏

Generally, we are closed on long weekends, but since we have staff working during Skipping Championships were able to have the Summit Fitness Centre open from 8 AM to 8 PM on Victoria Day - Monday, May 18.

Same rules and guidelines apply as regular drop‑in badminton during the semester:
- You will need your UFV campus card
- Have a Peak Pass membership or purchase a day pass.
- Athletic footwear is required

Look forward to seeing you on the court.
