Student Organizations

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about the organizations the Department of Community Health and Recreation is involved with.  Below you will find brief descriptions of each club, a contact name so you can get involved, and a link to their website if they have one (blue club name indicates a link to their website).

Health Club

The purpose of this organization is to provide awareness of various health issues and concerns to the campus, community, and themselves.  The ideas promoted by the club rest on "prevention" as the key to overall well-being.  The club is annually involved in is The Great American Smokeout and sponsors a Health Conference each spring semester.

Ski Industries Club

The UMF Ski Industries Club was formed to help students defer the costs of educational events (i.e., Referee Clinics, USSCA Coach’s School, Avalanche Safety Courses, PSIA events, etc.), provide opportunities for students to acquire pre-graduate work experience within the ski industry, and plan fun events in hopes of bringing the club members, and hopefully the industry, closer together (examples include: white water rafting, camping, socials, ropes courses, ski and snowboard trips, etc.).  Anyone interested in the ski industry or making turns and riding the powder will be greeted with open arms.
