What intramurals do you want on campus?

The PE/Athletics department has created a short survey to find out what the Shoreline CC community would like to see offered by the Intramural and Wellness programs.  Current programs include basketball, ping pong, fencing, indoor soccer, badminton, yoga, zumba, and cardio sculpt.

All faculty, staff, and students are invited to participate.  Future intramural and wellness activities will be created based on SCC community suggestions.  The survey takes less than 5 minutes to do!

Thank you in advance for your participation!
