In addition, starting February 10, SHRFC will be open 24 hours per day/ 7 days a week for unrestricted adult users. Minors aged 14-17 years old who have restricted badge access will still be limited to 6 am – 8 pm .

Here’s what you need to know to make the most of this wonderful fitness resource:

  • Tribal citizens can sign up with their Tribal ID to receive a PDK badge for access.
  • Tribal citizens who are also CIT Employees should also provide their  Employee ID so their current PDK badge will be programmed to include SHRFC access.
  • CIT employees should provide their current ID Badge number to sign up
  • Kilkich residents will need to include an address that verifies they reside on Kilkich lands. 
  • Children in the categories above, aged 10-13, can use the facility when supervised by a parent or guardian. They need to be included on their parents User Agreement and will not be issued their own badge.
  • Minors 14-17 can use the facility unsupervised if a User Agreement is completed and signed by a parent or guardian. This will give minors access to SHRFC from 6 am -8 pm, 7 days a week and their own badge will be issued.
  • Youth 9 years and under are welcome to use the outdoor areas but are not allowed inside the SHRFC. The only exception would be during Tribe-sponsored events for youth.
