Recently we told you that Enrolment Services Vancouver received funding through the Healthy Workplace Initiative to create a sports and wellness resource for staff. Over the past several weeks the planning team has been busy getting ready to open the doors to BH 0051B, where our equipment will be stored (see below for a list of equipment available).

Mike McGhee created a video to show you where BH 0051B is located:

Open house

On Wednesday and Thursday, May 20 & 21 from 11:30-12:30 we will host an open house. Stop by to:

  • See all of the fancy equipment you can borrow
  • Sign up for a membership
  • Learn how to sign-out equipment
  • Bring us your donations

Donations wanted

Do you have sports, fitness or wellness goods that are collecting dust? Donate them to the ES Sports Co-op. We are in need of:

  • Gently used portable sports equipment (tennis racquets, tennis balls, softballs and gloves, etc.)
  • Fitness equipment (skipping ropes, yoga blocks, yoga straps, etc.)
  • Wellness books (meditation, self-help, nutrition)

Co-op unit reps

We are seeking one or more volunteer(s) from Foundation, Senate, Student Financial Services and Undergraduate Admissions to represent their area and:
