What climbers say again and again
“Clean bathrooms, friendly atmosphere, a lot of the lockers in the locker room are broken and the showers produce unnecessarily hot water.”
“The equipment is always clean and the staff is very helpful when you have questions.”
From the reviews
The RAWC at UAFS is an amazing service provided to college students. The RAWC offers cutting-edge equipment for beginners all the way to experts in an environment that is extremely welcoming. The building is gorgeous, offering views of parts of campus through large windows.
Newer facility for UAFS students. Go around 2 or 3 and maybe get to play 5 on 5 basketball. Clean facility with the best custodian crew. Not to many big beefy try hards.
This is a fantastic gym! It's well-maintained, clean, and has great protocol to keep everyone safe. The staff is friendly and the equipment is top notch.
This is a great place to workout. The equipment is always clean and the staff is very helpful when you have questions.
