Student Benefits and Activities

Gym Memberships

The Student Senate has DISCONTINUED the discounted gym membership program at Gold’s Gym. Any discounted memberships that students had previously at Gold’s Gym or other previously named gyms are no longer valid. Students are encouraged to cancel these memberships if they do not wish to continue the membership at their own cost at full price. While it benefited a small group of students, our new focus is on offering a wider range of activities that more students and their families can enjoy.

Each month, Falcons can participate in 4 free or low-cost activities:

  • CEI Movies Nights at Royal Theaters (1st Wednesday of each month)
  • CEI at On Target Axe Throwing (2nd Thursday of each month)
  • CEI Swims at the Wes Deist Aquatic Center (3rd Friday of each month)
  • CEI Visits the East Idaho Aquarium (4th Tuesday of each month)

We’re excited to provide more ways to relax, connect, and have fun. Thank you for your understanding!
