Recreation at PC takes many forms. Learn more about our open gym, intramural sports, club sports and physical fitness opportunities.
Fitness Center and Gym Hours
Due to the world-wide pandemic, the Fitness Center is closed until further notice. The facility was constructed and opened in 2010 following a student body vote for a construction fee. That fee will continue to be collected until the building is paid off. The center has never charged a user fee to students.
All Recreation activities listed below are on hold until the campus reopens.
Fitness Center: The center is open to students and employees only. Hours vary by quarter, but typically are Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Fall, Winter and Spring. Summer Quarter hours are often more limited. Students will use their PC student ID card to swipe the door unlock mechanism to access the center.
Gym: The gym is open to students and employees only. Hours vary by quarter.
Pirate Performance Center: This is a power lifting room. It is open to students and employees only - and access is limited to those approved by the Recreation Coordinator (office in the gym).
