Obtaining a Resource Table Request Form
The Resource Table Request Form can be downloaded here or obtained at the second floor Reception Desk of the Student Recreation Center. The form must be completed and turned in to Tawyna Bomnskie at the second floor reception desk of the Student Recreation Center or mailed by campus mail to Tawyna Bomnskie, Department of Recreational Sports, mail stop 4250 at least two weeks prior to the first day requested and no longer than 28 days prior to the first day requested. The Department of Recreational Sports will only reserve two tables at any one time. When the Resource Table Request Form is approved, you will be issued a Resource Table Permit, if space is available during the time you requested, and you will be notified by phone to pick-up your permit in order to finalize your reservation. We can send the permit by campus mail if you prefer (please circle the appropriate answer in Step 3 of the request form).

Your Responsibilities While in the Student Recreation Center

- The name of the organization and event must be displayed. You may hang or tape information to the front of the table; please do not attach anything to the walls or columns in the Rec Center.
- Organization personnel must be present while the table displays your information. We request that you do not ask Rec Center employees to watch your table or answer questions, and you remove your material during hours your personnel are not available. Storage is not provided at the Rec Center.
Post-Resource Table Responsibilities
Please remove all your material when your resource time is over. Please pay particular attention to removing any tape you may have used. Please clean the table if it was soiled during your use.
Resource Table Policies
- A copy of the signed resource table permit must be on the table throughout the time designated for use.

- A representative of the group/organization must be present at the table during the hours requested. Rec Center personnel are not responsible for the table and materials during the reserved time. Materials may not be left unattended.
