The new Campbell County Recreation Center had its Grand Opening Celebration on Wednesday, April 7, 2010. The new facility
features many new amenities including a 42-foot climbing wall designed to resemble aspects of Devil’s Tower Monument and will serve as the focal point of the spacious lobby to honor this national icon. The facility will also include: a six-lane lap pool, a three-meter diving platform,
a zero-depth leisure pool including two water slides, a lazy river and many toy features, three basketball courts, four racquetball courts, elevated walking track, kids zone used for baby-sitting, concessions, weight room, cardio area, three exercise rooms, two birthday party rooms, two tanning beds, training and locker rooms. The partnership developed in this project with the Campbell County School District allowed for an 81,000-square-foot field house with a six lane, 200-meter track and five indoor tennis courts. This unique 190,000-square foot facility will have the advantage of combining a full-service recreation center with a multi-use competitive sports and training facility. Shared use of the amenities will be the hallmark of this creative mixed approach.
