Cornell Recreation Connection

The CRC's mission is to encourage camaraderie and the Cornell spirit among staff, faculty, and retirees by providing social and recreational events. Get involved with the CRC to help create events or join the mailing list to get event and NYC day trip notifications.

Is your department looking for lawn games for your upcoming event? CRC can help! Our inventory of lawn games can be borrowed for your Cornell-sponsored event. We kindly ask for a donation that helps us replace old or broken games and purchase new ones for the future!
