Activities and Recreation Center, Recreational facility at University of Illinois, Champaign, US
The Activities and Recreation Center is a large facility on the University of Illinois campus containing multiple gymnasiums, swimming pools, and specialized spaces for fitness training. It offers equipment and areas designed for weight training, cardiovascular exercise, ball sports, and water-based activities.
The building opened in 1971 as the Intramural Physical Education Building and served students for many years. A major renovation starting in 2006 modernized the entire facility, and it reopened in 2008 with its current name.
The center serves as a gathering place where students spend time staying active and pursuing their interests. People use the spaces regularly for fitness, sports, and social activities that form part of campus life.
The facility is primarily open to current students and members from early morning until evening hours. Lockers, wireless internet access, and accommodations for people with mobility needs are available throughout the building.
The facility includes a tall climbing wall and a specialized kitchen for learning cooking techniques alongside typical fitness equipment. These additions give visitors opportunities to develop different skills beyond conventional exercise.
