Letter from the
F
Director
irst off, I’d like to say welcome to the SFA Campus Recreation Alumni newsletter! Next I should probably introduce myself. My name is Ken Morton, and I am the new Director of Campus Recreation at SFA. For those of you who do not know, SFA has built a fantastic recreation facility and program here on campus. Opened in 2007, the Student Recreation Center houses all of the Campus Recreation programs including Wellness, Intramural Sports, Sport Clubs, Fitness, Outdoor Pursuits, Aquatics, and Informal Recreation. We have over 12,000 visits per week, and the numbers keep growing. We have created this newsletter as a way of staying connected to the thousands of SFA Alumni who participated in and benefitted from their recreational experience while at SFA. Many of you who played in the SFA Intramural leagues will recall how much fun you had competing and making friendships along the way. You may also recall that the Intramural Department was led for over 40 years by Dr. Ray Worsham. In honor of his many years of service to the students of SFA, Campus Recreation has created an endowed scholarship named the Dr. Raymond Lee Worsham Endowed Scholarship. This scholarship will be given to a deserving student employee of Campus Recreation each year. You can learn more about the scholarship in this issue of the newsletter. We will have many other opportunities for our alumni to get involved with the Campus Recreation Department in the months and years to come. For now, enjoy the trip down memory lane and learn about some of the great programs we offer here at SFA.
